PH provides select scholarships to individuals from the community to learn skilled trades. To date, we have sent four men to masonry training, two to welding training, and we currently have three studying auto mechanics in Port-au-Prince. Through these training opportunities, young men are learning a skill which allows them to provide for their families and build their future. PLH has also been able to hire each of them to work on campus construction projects. Read more…

This fall, I’m thrilled to be teaching a Biblical English class to some of our more advanced English students. Last year, Gerald and Laura taught classes on Medical English and How to Teach English. We have always wanted to incorporate the Bible in our course offerings. Since our family is here for less than two months, I meet with the students twice a week for two-hour sessions. Even though that means a total of only 14 class sessions, I decided to tackle a survey of the entire Bible.
