"We've Been Working on the Railroad"

Actually we were working on the gutters in Ashaiman Market.  Theses gutters are deep to catch the run off from the rain, but when they are plugged up with garbage, sewage, and muck, they clog up and we get flooding. All of the members of the Church put on vests and worked together on Saturday the 15th of August, 2015 all over Africa. We are in the Kpone ward right now, so we went with the Asahiman Stake to clean our market. We all became Mormon Helping Hands.


We bought rakes at the market for 3 cedi each.

Our friends the Wades worked with us and bought us some gloves to wear.
President Morrison is the Stake President of Ashaiman Stake and does a wonderful job of leading and teaching.

Elder Wilde drinks coconut milk.

The real work was done by the shovelers who made large piles and then shoveled it into large garbage containers.



It was a joyous occasion and everyone celebrated when when the work was done.




We had hundred of workers in this market. In Accra we also had a stake cleaning the beach, and another cleaning and painting a hospital.  In Medina they worked on the Medina market. We became one.
