Adult Literacy Teacher

I would like to introduce Nelly Altidor, a new teacher at Grace Academy, who will start teaching an adult literacy program on Tuesday, March 5th. We are so excited for this program and the dignity we will bring to 10 of the elders in our ElderCare program as well as 14 other adults in Titanyen. Please join us in praying for Pwofese Altidor and all of the students. If you are interested in supporting this program financially, please consider making a onetime donation of $12 for one student's curriculum materials or $117 for a months salary for our new teacher!

Meet The Team

Carrolle Dieulanick, Haitian Employee

Carolle is our Haitian employee who has an amazing heart for the elderly. With some medical training, she makes sure that each of our elders has their medicine, takes blood pressures and more. She visits each elder at least once a week, talking, singing and praying with them. She has also been teaching them bible verses and makes sure they feel loved and cared for. She also makes sure that elders on our meals program receive a meal daily and that all of our elders receive a monthly supply of food staples.

Cheryl Michel, Sponsorship Advocate

Cheryl joined the sponsorship team just after she and her husband Steve, and two of their daughters, Heidi and Kalie, returned from a Calvary Healing Haiti mission trip in July 2013. Cheryl has strong administrative skills and has already made valuable contributions to the sponsorship program.

Vania Pierre, Artisian Program Coordinator

Vania and her husband Emmanuel have been regular volunteers at Grace Church. She also volunteered to help with the bread ovens and after seeing her intricately braided bread.....we knew she would be perfect for teaching the elderly the details of making artisian items as a way to make a living. She started on November 11, 2013 spending 4 hours each day working with the elderly. We are so happy that she is on our team!!!
