First thing today we went to church at Lomngeletjan Church. The service consists of many songs and a few dances. Usually a few youth would lead the songs that most everyone knew, even though they had song books. They had a offering which went to help rebuilding houses. First the congregation sang a song and then someone would go up and give their offering and say what they were thankful for and gave thanks to God. It was really neat to hear everyone's responses but it made me realize how much stuff I take for granted. After the service we ate lunch at the church with the congregation. Later we broke up into teams and visited homesteads. Some of the youth from the church came with us to translate. Now we are back at the lodge having some free time.
