Another day filled with touching moments. We headed north to Titanyen to purchase food for some elderly people who have no one to take care of them. The average life expectancy in Haiti is just 52, and these men and women have outlived their own children. They may have a grandchild or two to help out, but they are pretty much on their own. We sang with and prayed for these elders and checked up on their general well-being. We rubbed lotion into arms and legs that had seen many years of hard and strenuous work. Most of these precious men and women are living in little more than shacks which were hastily constructed after the 2010 earthquake. Their wants are so basic: a solid floor, roof leaks repaired, a bed. And yet their joy seems to know no bounds. Truly beautiful souls.
