March Madness!
Unfortunately March has brought a lot of madness and
sorrow with the devastating earthquake and tsunami
hitting Japan and the unending looming threat of the
nuclear reactors.
Our hearts and prayers continue to go out to the people
of Japan during this time and we give thanks and praise
to God for every survivor that has been found and for each
family that has been reunited.
Here in Hawaii, we have much to be thankful for! Though
there was some damage in various parts of the islands,
it is minimal compared to the devastation of Japan.
We give thanks to God!

Recently both the Hilo Exchange Club and the Aloha
Exchange Club of East Hawaii came out and lent us a
hand! They cleaned inside and out! Wiping down all
surfaces, fixtures and windows. Additionally, they weed
