On Saturday, November 22nd, we visited the Northcross Intermediate School in Brown's Bay, Auckland, New Zealand. A group had contacted the church to help them ship a container of donated school furniture and supplies from Auckland, New Zealand to Apia, Samoa. The Auckland Harbour Stake in partnership with the Northcross Intermediate School Board of Trustees joined together and collected school furniture, books and materials to the Tuanui School in Apia, Samoa. The goods supplied will be used by both LDS and non-LDS students in Samoa. The day we visited we were joined by students, their parents, and six young missionaries to finish loading a 20 foot container.
The container was shipped on Wednesday, Nov 26. When it arrives in Samoa we will have to post some more pictures.
"There is power in our love for God and for His children, and when that love is tangibly manifest in millions of acts of Christian kindness, it will sweeten and nourish the world with the life-sustaining nectar of faith, hope, and charity." M. Russel Ballard, October 2012
