Preparing for the Book of Mormon Celebration

Branch members are starting to prepare for the Book of Mormon Celebration scheduled for July 25.  


Sister Daniel and others are making scariris from hibiscus bark.  They strip it, bleach it, dry it and then pull it apart into thin strands that they tie onto a waistband to make a skirt to wear for traditional dancing.


Tying the hibiscus bark strips onto the waistband. 



     Elder and Sister Hardy came from Chuuk to help. They helped build a stage and block the pageant.


Sister Nena is making flower holders from palm leaves to decorate the stage.


We attended the baptism of two cousins performed at a beautiful waterfall.


The Zarbocks also came to Kosrae for Zone Conference and left Kosrae together on the same flight.


With typical Kosraean generosity Brother Daniel brought us a gift of breadfruit and steamed crabs.
