Hungry

We were driving through the backroads of Grenada and found a man cooking a cow's head on an open fire. He said that he cooks it this way for a while then skins the outer hide to get to the good stuff whatever that is. We didn't want to know.

Beautiful Grenada

I took this picture from the balcony of the church in Grenada. When I was in church, I think I was a little distracted. A hurricane almost completely destroyed the island just 5 years ago and look at it now.

Young elders

This is the truck loaded with bales of clothing ready to go. These are two of the young Elders assigned to Grenada. They are so fun to be around and they work hard

Helping hands

This shows a bunch of elders and others who helped unload the container in Grenada when it came in to port. It took all day.

Happy women

This shows a large group of women going through the bales of clothing we took to their little village in Grenada. They thought it was Christmas. Many of these women had large families.

Children's home

We delivered clothing to this childrens home. They were delighted to get some clothing and other items from the Church.

Disabled band

This is a home for the disabled. We furnished a lot of clothing to them and when we left, they played some little instruments and sang a song for us. We sang "I am a child of God" to them as we were leaving.

New dressers

We had a carpenter make 50 of these dressers for an old folks home in Guyana. The patients had nowhere to put their little bit of stuff and asked the Church for help. It was a fun project

Twisted hair

This is a picture of a new member of the Church in Grenada. She doesn't weave her hair but twists it. It's still a lot of work.

Last photo of Guyana

This is one of the largest wood churches in the world. We took the picture the day before we left Guyana.

Let's read

We gave some books to the Amerindians and these little kids came over to me and had me read to them. They were very smart.

Mango, mango

These are huge mango trees on the Savannah in Lethem. More mangoes are eaten in the world than any other fruit, even bananas. These trees are over a hundred years old and produce a great amount of fruit every year. The mango is delicious. You can tell how big these trees are by the size of the SUV underneath. When you drive around the islands and over Guyana, you see thousands of these trees full of the mango. Even a poor begger can find a mango and get something to eat anytime he wants.

Relaxation!!!

When we flew to Lethem by the Brazilian border, we had to take a 2 hr. truck ride back in the Savannah. When we got there, I found this hammock and relaxed a little. Sister Whitehead and I were tired.

Cute girls

Here are some cute Amerindian teenage girls. They make me look like I'm over 7 feet tall.

The men aren't any taller than the girls.

Happy people

We went to several Amerindian villages next to the Brazilian border and gave several items to them. This picture shows them holding up some of the items we gave to them. Toys, hygiene kits, school kits, new born kits, clothing and shoes are some of the items given.
