Feb 28th

Taveuni clean up will soon begin......
Vuna Bush chapel , although damaged and empty, will be holding Sacrament meeting this week for those that can be there. 

People ran with their water barrels, jugs , and cups, when they saw the water truck coming.

One lady on seeing our yellow vests, asked if she could join our church. 



President Maiwiriwiri was able to visit with families.

The children had never heard chain saws before!




Several families grouped together with usable pieces of material to make community shelters .

Smiles appeared instantaneously as food was brought.



The children seemed quieter than usual, not so cheeky as they usually are, no victory signs when we photographed them.....




Blessed to give hugs and encouragement to the Sisters and their families.


Sepo came back from the Suva cultural event to no home, but a safe family. He was very happy!

The chapel water tank is one of the repairable ones.

George Kumar came from Suva to assess and help. 


The stores are starting to run out of staples. There is no more sugar, flour, rice , onions, potatoes, water and other items on the shelves. We hope they get to work on the jetty soon!
The road to Navakawau no longer looks the same. The school bus has no windows the concrete Community shelter has no roof. 

Everyone was saying what a blessing the Cyclone came in the daytime. At night there would have been many more casualties.
Where is beautiful Taveuni?


We hope the farms will quickly produce again.
