Anse a Veau

Arriving in Anse a Veau, we visit the construction work on the Village of Hope - expected inauguration Jan 12, 2011, in honor of the students killed during the quake while on a mission trip with FFP. The work is progressing with concrete blocks being made on site. Rebar was being delivered by the truck load and home sites were seeing their foundations laid.

The water system is being worked out but as yet unfunded. The plan is for individual water catchments for each house and a well or cistern to provide for the school and cafeteria. There is very limited potable water. The only available water is city provide from a cistern providing but a trickle because of the number of persons needing access.

After a brief visit we are racing back to the river crossing in an effort to beat the rain that is starting to fall.
