Haitians in Church Praising the Lord

Christianity in Haiti - Here is a picture of Haitian christians in Church praising the Lord.

It was reported that, since the Haiti earthquake that killed more than 300,000 Haitians, they are turning to God in even bigger numbers.

Is this true or false?

In 2018, the CIA world Factbook reported that 54.7 percent of the Haitian population is Roman Catholic and 28.5 percent is Protestant (Baptist 15.4%, Pentecostal 7.9%, Adventist 3%, Methodist 1.5%, other 0.7%), vodou 2.1%, other 4.6%, none 10.2%

Here is a photo of a bunch of Haitians in Chile getting off a bus with a cold white snowy mountain in the background.

Oh... How cold it must be for these tropical folks.

Haitian Migration to Chile

Lots of Haitians migrated to Chile, a long, narrow country stretching along South America's western edge, looking for new opportunities. Some say nearly 1 percent of the Haitian population left and migrated to Chile.

A palm tree in Haiti loaded with bird nests

A palm tree in Haiti loaded with bird nests

I have only seen this twice in my lifetime. A palm tree in Haiti loaded with bird's nests.

I saw it once when I was a kid vacationing in my uncle's house in Port-au-Prince. I saw it once again later on in life, this one not far from the Hinquitte River in my hometown of hinche Haiti.

Nowadays you barely see any birds in the sky when you look up in Haiti.

Gade foto sa-a... Pie Palmis Chaje ak Nish Zwazo - Andeyo Haiti.

Si-w se diaspora, sa pa fe-w sonje peyi-w?

Moulin Kann - Moulin A Canne - Old fashion wooden Sugarcane mill in Haiti

Moulin Kann - Moulin A Canne - Old fashion wooden Sugarcane mill in Haiti

Here is a photo of an old fashion wooden sugarcane mill in Haiti (moulin kann in Creole, moulin a canne in French), still in operation.

This specific sugar cane mill sit in countryside village of Savane Haleine, outside of Maissade, Centre, Haiti.

These wooden sugarcane mills are still in operation in Haiti they are moved by two cows or two horses tied to the lever that you see extending out.

As the horse turns it, one of two people feed the sugars cane in between two big wooden rollers and the cane juice falls in the big canoe looking wooden crate below the rollers.

It is still the middle ages in some parts of the country, I am sorry to say but it is one more thing you will get to visit if you decide to go on a road trip while visiting Haiti
