This is a turtle belonging to one of the Haitian families. It lives in a 5 gallon bucket in the bathroom - this is apparently better than living in the oily and polluted ocean.

This is 13 Year old Kenia. They don't have a lot of baptismal clothing there so they look for anything that is all white, this is a doctor's lab coat. Kenia is with a member of the ward who is like a mother to her.
