Another month flown past. One of the highlights this month was a walk out to Alagula which is one of our remote health centers. Russell joined the carpenters and the medical students for a week of maintenance work and health clinics at the center. Girls have been busy at school and the odd birthday party and youth group activity thrown in for fun.
