I asked Manno about the three days of prayer and fasting that President Preval had declared. Here was his response:


The National league of Haitian pastors asked the government to give us 3 days set apart in the Haitian calendar for three days of prayer and fasting.

The president said instead of 3 days I give you 5 days. Since he is a joker we thought that he was playing but we made all the arrangements anyway. He did not say anything at all. When the dates arrived we started the prayer and fasting all over the country.

We proclaimed 4 days of prayer and fasting and a day of marching through out all the main cities of the country. We did Friday the 12th and Saturday the 13th. Sunday the 14th, we had church as usual. On Monday the 15th and today we had a big march in town.

For us in the North, we marched through Cap-Haitian from 8 AM through 3:30 PM. We start by the Airport, we went through the boulevard by the ocean all the way through town. We passed in front of the Cathedral which is 18th street.

I just come back from the march and I am kind of tired. My back is hurting bad. I also have some pictures of the march that I will attach.

Have a good night
