Thank You Yarmouth Wesleyan Team

May 8, 2015 Posted by Karen Huxter 5 Comments

Thank you to another awesome team – Yarmouth Wesleyan – wow, wow and wow.

What a great week we all had together here at HATS.  We thank you so very, very much for raising funds so we could go buy the paint before your arrival.  The colours, Sulky Sandra and Crackerjack Karen, go well along with the colour of Boring Keith Wight, for the outside of the church.

Thank you for all the hard work painting the church and in helping prepare for a celebration of 20 years in Haiti.  The party would not have happened without you.  Thank you for working so well alongside Keith, Joan, Luckner and I.  We all wish to say a huge thank you once more and all four of us will be awaiting your return.

The photos speak better than words.
