Donating blood, picking up trash, and hearing aids...

The Red Cross came the end of June...during it 3 members of the church donated blood, for the first time ever!


The HIV monster...the message got across and the audience was laughing hysterically!


The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment came and did a waste management presentation, covering the 3 R's. Hanna was super awesome explaining just how recycling works!

The pastor got super into the program and then took over, throwing plastic bottles and tin cans at the kids and having them put them back into the right boxes.


A matai and one of the village guys setting down the recycling crate!


Bringing the trash to the crate...


Sorting out the tin cans and the plastic bottles.


Riding in the truck to go pick up the "real" garbage..no recycling or breadfruit leaves allowed!


I love Laura! Her Dad came with a audiologist and fitted a boy in my village with his hearing aid! I always see him walking to school in the morning, and he is always proudly wearing it.


I still smile when I am walking to school and the kids are already there, library books in hand.


You've heard of a scare-crow, ever heard of a scare-pig??? Guess it worked!
