Canadian Armed Forces Bring Their Support to L'Arche Carrefour
L'Arche Canada-Communications
Posted 2010-02-22 10:33:53

This note is sent on behalf of Padre Guy Belisle-

Greetings to all -

Attached please find photos from our JTF(H) charity project at L'Arche in Carrefour Haiti. In total approximately 40 Canadian soldiers participated over a two day period.

 Jean-Robert, fondateur de la communauté 

We set up a number of tents, we levelled the ground, we dug ditches and we brought food and water.

Everybody was very happy with our efforts, especially the Director of L'Arche, Jacqueline Senom. It was an incredible experience for the soldiers involved and it really made us feel as though we had made a positive contribution, reinforcing why the Canadian Forces are here.



It was a blessing for us to have been able to help these people in need.

Padre Belisle
