Repairs to the Leogane Church and Property



          A steel cover to conceal the valves for the water line.


      One of the gates on the property that was repaired.  Rusted sections were cut out of it and new track and rollers installed.



   New steel reinforced concrete posts were placed on the corners and at each side of the doorway.


      Thieves have removed sections of our chain link fence that surrounds the property.  There have been two occasions where they came and removed sections of fencing.

         
        The tresses are being made for the roof.  They will be painted before they are installed.



      The tresses are stacked in half sections along the wall in the garage.
