Special Screening: “A Hope in Hell” movie

It is now 13 years since an earthquake devastated Haiti. What has changed? Haitians continue to be crushed by poverty, disease, violence, corruption, and natural disasters accentuated by environmental degradation. Is Haiti a lost cause? For Vision Citadelle-a small Canadian-Haitian NGO-the answer is an emphatic “no”. The steps they are taking may be small but they are progressive, sustainable, and most importantly “Haitian” in origin.

This film offers a rare glimpse of hope in a perpetually hopeless land. There will also be an update on the current desperate crisis in this troubled land.

Eastminster United Church on May 2 from 7pm-9pm
