The Haitian culture is not better or worse than our culture, it is just different. It would be arrogant of any American to think different. Some of the most positive aspects of the culture are the people's modest dress. No suggestive clothing. Instead they dress in a way that honors God.
Women always wear dresses and men long pants.
In all their poverty their clothes are clean and they are very neat in appearance. They are more polite than Americans and have a great sense of humor. As a people they have a real faith and belief in God. I was well respected. Michael's task is to baptize the culture, to bless the good and preach the Gospel, and to those who would accept the fullness of the Orthodox Gospel, baptize them.
