Pictures from January (continued)

Our village is sponsored by a “sister village” in Wales that sends our village all sorts of stuff and sends representatives for a visit once a year. They also pay the school fees for all the kids in village and have contributed significantly to a skill center here. Good stuff! The Welsh representatives came with a huge container of stuff and a tractor last week, so our village had a big party welcoming them. Here are some pictures from the party:


Getting ready to unload the container. Did I mention they brought a tractor? Very exciting.

Look...a workbench!


Count on the small boys to always be in on the action


Jacob and Wuyay, who worked his butt off to get ready for this donor visit
