St. Andre's School, Haiti

St Andre’s School in Hinche, Haiti, is where the Great Commandment to love God and to love our neighbors as ourselves took root years ago and still flourishes. For four decades, St. Dunstan’s has been working hard to provide love and financial support for the children of St. Andre’s. From a fledging school of just 3 grades and 37 pupils, St. Andre’s has grown to 40 classrooms with 1,500 students (including recent refugees from Port-au-Prince) who are fed a hot meal for the day and nourished with a stimulating education that will serve them far into the future.

Through catastrophes of every kind – a failed government, gang violence with daily kidnappings, earthquakes and hurricanes, excruciating poverty – St. Andre’s partnership with St. Dunstan’s has grown in strength, commitment, and love.

What are the odds that folks living and worshiping in such diverse places as Haiti and the Monterey Peninsula could develop such a loving and dynamic partnership?

That story is much too exciting to fit here. Please be brave, take a chance your heart may expand, and click here:

  • Grown from 37 students in three elementary grades to a dynamic student body of 1,500 this school year - enrolled in classes from pre-school for 3-year-o…

How We Do God's Work

We're very proud of this track record. It wouldn't have happened without the people of St. Dunstan's walking with and working with a remarkable succession of Episcopal priests and dedicated laymen and women in Hinche. It has taken all of us, plus a network of friends and supporters throughout the Monterey Peninsula, to get us this far. By walking together hand in hand we ar…

Where We Are Headed

Every year our first and most important financial commitment is to supply hot meals for the kids and to assure the salaries of our dedicated teachers. Some parents are able to pay the yearly tuition of $250 that pays for part of the costs per student to cover teachers' very modest salaries. Many are not. St. Dunstan's covers the purchase of fresh food from local farmers and p…

Sunday mornings at St. Dunstan’s is the time when the community gathers together to worship and praise God! Services of Holy Eucharist happen at 8am (Rite II, no music) and at 10am (Rite II with organ & choir), followed by coffee and connection! We also gather on Wednesday mornings for a more intimate service with conversation, reflection and communion. Any time you are unable to join us in person, head on over to St. Dunstan’s Live, where you can join us for our 10am service, live-streamed on YouTube. You’ll also find our latest sermons and past services on our St. Dunstan’s Episcopal Church Carmel Valley YouTube Channel.
