OUR MISSION
Holy Spirit Haiti Mission is a life giving effort by many from Holy Spirit Catholic Church in Huntsville, AL as well as many others who volunteer their time, resources and efforts in order to help those in need in the country of Haiti. We are not an NGO; we are a ministry called to do the Lord’s work helping one person at a time. Our focus includes but is not limited to orphanage support, education, clean water initiatives, and seeking islands of economic opportunity to help Haitians “learn to fish”. We are people from all walks of life who share a common bond of God and helping others. Thank you for visiting and we hope that you can find ways to help the Haitian people through our ministry.
Cap Rouge Pharmacy Project
Brother Arie has been reassigned from Palmiste Au Vin Monastery to a small community called Cap Rouge. We visited this community the last time we were in Haiti and let me tell you, it is quite the bumpy car ride through the mountains! Due to the remote location, there are limited supplies and clean water in this location. Brother Arie has proposed a project to start a small pharmacy in the area with on call doctors since there is currently no medical care in Cap Rouge. Additionally, he is assisting with the installation of a water purification center. Click on the title to learn more about this project!
Video Updates from Haiti
The Holy Spirit Haiti Mission will be sharing a series of video posts over the next few weeks to show what daily life in Haiti is like currently and give you updates on the projects we support.
The St. Charles Borromeo School has asked some of their students to tell their story.
The first video is about John Castro Joseph who is one of the Palmiste au Vin University students that the Holy Spirit Haiti Mission sponsored. He has now graduated and is teaching at the school. He speaks of the challenges that students face in Haiti just to be able to study.
The second video is about Veliane Joseph who has started a small business to help pay for her school expenses.
The next two videos tell about the terrible tragedies that are happening in Port au Prince and how that has affected students in the region.
The first video tells about Delva Monica and how she had a most harrowing encounter with the gangs and had to flee the city.
The second video is about Lauren Wendy who also had to flee the capital city from the gangs and violence.
Luckily, both students are now going to St. Charles Borromeo school which is in the mountains away from the crime and unrest.
