Episcopalians to Haiti: Mission Report


From Alabama-

Who: Members of Church of the Nativity, St. Thomas and other members of the Episcopal Diocese of Alabama to Haiti to the Episcopal Diocese of Haiti, where we've had a partnership for five years.

What: Our work was focused with St. Simeon parish, six widespread churches served by Father Fritz Valdema and his wife, Carmel, a Haitian public health nurse.
Work: With our Haitian medical counterparts, we formed a Haitian-American team to conduct four medical clinics during our week in the country. We saw more than 540 patients. Our team also distributed Clorox to purify drinking water during a cholera prevention education session.
