We found little Jonas Alce in the mountains of Demesseau, Haiti, during a Mobile Clinic. His mother had just died during childbirth. His father could not care for him.

Jonas wants to go to the Dominican Republic to study to be a mechanic. The mechanic school here in Haiti is surrounded by gangs, so he cannot go there. His second choice is the Dominican Republic, but he needs to speak Spanish. We bought him a laptop and hooked him up with “Babbel.” We hope his Spanish is good enough next year so he can go.

Jonas loves soccer, mechanics, and “dressing nice for church!” Maybe there is another reason to dress up for church… hmmm! We all love Jonas!
