SOCCER TOURNMENT IN JACMEL INVITED BY THE UN

We had a personal invitation by the representatives of the Human Rights Division of the United Nations to participate in a soccor tournament in Jacmel today. This was as a result of their tour of our schools the other day. Our boys had never played soccer together before as there is no level ground in the mountains to play on. They at times use a small are we have on the playground that is a couple hundred square feet. Anyway the boys played today against one of the top teams in the city and won 2 to 0.. They now play in the finals tomorrow afternoon. There were many of our children bussed down from Chabin to watch the game.. You would have thought we won the world cup with all the excitment and cheering that went on.. The picture of the two boys with Pastor are the two boys that scored the goals... stay tuned for tomorrows results....

Our two winning goal scorers!!
