Missionaries teach outside the classroom, too: students learn about plants and the environment as they develop the gardens on campus.
National Volunteer Week is a time to celebrate and thank those who volunteer their time, energy, and lives for others. Here at The Haitian Project, we are celebrating all those who serve in our community, with a spotlight on our many Missionaries (formerly called Volunteers) who have given a year or more to teach, live and serve at Louverture Cleary School in Haiti.
For over 25 years, The Haitian Project’s mission and charism have been lived out and exemplified at LCS outside of Port-au-Prince in Haiti by its vibrant community of Missionary teachers.
Missionaries of all ages have brought stability in chaotic times, determination in challenging tasks, and joy in daily life while embracing and participating in the greater Louverture Cleary School community.
Life of the Missionary Community includes:
Living in community with other Missionaries and Haitian staff members
Teaching classes, such as English, religion, and economics
Leading extracurriculars such as sports and clubs, giving the chance for students to be enriched both in and out of the classroom
Participating in the physical development and upkeep of the campus
Participating in daily community prayer and weekly Mass
