Mario and Evangeline, the husband and wife directors of Gentille Hirondelle elementary school in Haiti, visited Vacation Bible School at King of Kings Lutheran Church in Farifax, Virginia this summer. The American children made cards for them to take back to Haiti. The directors answered questions about Haiti, and taught the children a Haitian stone game called "Os Cabri" ("Goat Bones"). Haitian children don't have many toys to play with, so they play games with simple things they can find, like stones. Os Cabrit is so easy for Haitian children, but the Virginia kids had stones flying all over the room, making the directors laugh like crazy!
