These kids are looking through the door of the Light & Peace Christian School in Cabaret. The town of Cabaret was severely damaged by massive flooding. The children in the school receive an education and a hot lunch every day. These kids outside are just hoping to get a piece of candy from the Mission Team.

These are the students inside the school at Cabaret. Can you believe there were 190 students in that little church/school building? They didn't even have enough benches for all the kids to sit on. Each class faces a different direction to lessen the distractions. Most of the kids didn't have uniforms, none of them had books. We gave each of the big kids a cloth backpack and all of the kids a small bag of toys and candy. The Mission Team is in the front of the kids, singing Alouette with them.
