Last Wednesday, we were invited to attend a “Hand Over Ceremony” by the Roths for a Humanitarian Aid project. They had worked hard with the Seaqaqa Health Center and were giving them two new computers and printers, two new white boards, and a new wheelchair. All these items are very expensive in Fiji. We gathered chairs from the church in Seaqaqa and set them up. Everything was beautifully decorated. It was a very formal ceremony with decorum, speeches, etc. The refreshments provided by the Roths were more like a meal than treats. They had worked very hard to make it all come to pass.
I love these good people. They usually work on water projects, etc. that are $60,000 or so. It was nice to see a small project that meant so much to the people of Seaqaqa.
President Layton has given us another assignment to work with the Seaqaqa Branch which includes a couple small groups far off, one of which is Nakawakawa. You will be hearing a lot about these places in the future.
Take good care!
Love you all!
