Lifeline won the soccer game 7-4 in their new uniforms!

Last night Lifeline’s football (soccer) team had the night of their life! Lifeline’s team played an exciting game against Barbancourt and won 7-4. Last time Lifeline played Barbancourt they lost, but last night they made sure to win. The game was especially fun because Lifeline had on their brand new uniforms. We are so grateful for the kind donor who gave Lifeline the uniforms that say Lifeline on the front and Haiti on the back along with their number. The also had matching shorts, socks, and white headbands. The team was so proud to wear their uniforms and win the game. Last night was just the beginning of a week-long tournament. We’re looking forward to spending time with people from the community as they come for a great event that enables the people to have some fun. In the midst of the election chaos, inevitable riots, the lingering cholera epidemic, and the normal day to day uncertainty that Haiti brings, it’s nice to come together and have an evening of fun. What a blessing it was to see the team rally together in their uniforms to play and see the crowd of people scream and cheer as their favorite team scored goals. We’re so grateful to have our soccer field for occasions just like this!
