Friday was spent at church for a zone conference with Elders Thanh and Le, and Sisters Dao and Hien and President and Sister Christensen. Elder and Sister Noorda were on a trip looking at provincial projects with Church World Service. So we missed them, but I was really happy for them. Church World Service does a marvelous job with their sanitation projects. Their model of operation is very effective in its ability to foster long-lasting, self-sustaining education and emotional and physical ownership based changes in small communities. So I am very glad about the possibilities not only of LDSCharities partnering with them but also learning from them. Thanks to the Gatherums for their awareness that has facilitated that connection for the Noordas.
