Haiti - Social : Message from Lesly Condé for the Feast of Our Lady of Perpetual Help
On June 27, 2023, brings back the feast of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Patron Saint of Haiti, on this day of celebration, Lesly Condé, Former Consul General of Haiti in Chicago (August 2004 - May 2018), issued a message to all Haitians, which we invite you to read and share :

Message from Lesly Condé:
"Dear compatriots and friends everywhere,

This is the time of the year when the great Haitian family bows humbly before Our Lady of Perpetual Help, the patron saint of our country, to thank her for having protected us so well until now, and to send her fervent prayers because his protection is essential to us. In her immense mercy, the patron saint of the Republic of Haiti protected our ancestors from the earliest childhood of our nation. She guided them through bumpy paths, sparing them from pitfalls they could not even suspect. This same patron saint who guides and protects us today, will accompany our children and our children's children because her goodness is infinite. We worship him today and all the days of our lives.

We live, in fact, in a world where cooperation between humans only exists in the greatest mistrust because the interests of some do not always necessarily coincide with those of others. The protection of Our Lady of Perpetual Help is essential to us in this pseudo-civilized world where man is a wolf to man. Our frail nation has always needed a great deal of abnegation, temperance, and above all extraordinary resilience to cling to its existence in this ocean infested with ill-intentioned sharks. Isolated as it is, if Haiti has learned to subsist on the edge of the abyss, it must be believed that Our Lady of Perpetual Help has never abandoned us. Let's therefore be grateful, and keep our fervor and our faith. We are not alone in this fight.

Since its birth, which dates back to the first day of January 1804, our country has never ceased to face obstacles of all kinds; some more obvious than others. In this world that has never hidden its hostility and contempt, we cannot know how many times Our Lady of Perpetual Help has intervened to protect this first black republic in the world. Our deplorable economic situation and our sometimes ill-chosen leaders make this country of twelve million inhabitants a favorite target for all adversities. In our isolation, we have experienced epidemic after epidemic. Some left their mark, but we survived. We must give thanks to Our Lady of Perpetual Help. Where would our dear Haiti be without the invariable protection of this powerful patroness ?

When we talk about all the dangers that threaten the world in which we live, and which make it more and more unstable, we must, at one time or another, mention COVID-19, this merciless pandemic which still makes people talk. from her. There were so many bleak predictions for Haiti, a country completely on its own. At the end of the day, we can say at the point where we are, that our country has done well. How not to thank Our Lady of Perpetual Help ? His kindness is boundless. Our gratitude too.

We always address ourselves with confidence to Our Lady of Perpetual Help because she is the Patroness of our country, and she has never abandoned us."
