Handwriting On The Wall

While in Haiti, I captured several photographs of handwriting and signs at Mission of Hope. From memory verses written in chalk on steel beams to a history lesson on a chalkboard, most of it was in French, as opposed to French Creole, which was surprising to me.



"the sun, the door"

"You and me"

"Jesus loves Jessica"


A lesson on World War II in French.


A science lesson.

One important life lesson instilled in the children at Mission of Hope is the respect of property and an orderly environment. These ideals are hard to find outside the mission, and could very well be the seeds to social transformation in Haiti in the next generation.


"Cleanliness is a good virtue"


"My duty is to always keep the school environment clean: the courtyard, the classrooms, the walls."





"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31
