Doing our share.

For the 2nd year running we have had a "Helping Hands" activity, on the same day, for the whole of Africa. This year our ward chose to help the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA). There were various assignments, including recycling, rubble removal, empyting and cleaning the duckpond, welding, painting a mural, cleaning the animals blankets. It was an excellent day. Firstly they got the primary children to clean out the duck pond and pick up the horse droppings. (All the gross jobs, in my opinion)

I also had a gross job. We had to go through rubbish bags that people hadn't even sorted and put it into recycling piles. The worst things were used tissues and plastic bottles with old yoghurt inside.
My next assignment was much more fun. I helped paint the sky for the mural.
Kyle helped with the duck pond clean up and painting the perimeter walls. He worked so hard and I was very proud of him.
Logan was one of the "official" photographers. He also helped Lara to make the helping hands logo on the mural at the end.

It felt good to be helping and doing physical work.
