Post Office Memo

A BIG thanks to all of you who have sent pillow cases for the new Translation Center! We have enough linens now, and the new building will be dedicated in March. Our family will be back in Marulaon, so we will miss the ceremony. But no housing would be available because so many special people will be coming to help SITAG celebrate!
The Honiara post office has begun to place a tax on the value of the contents of packages. So, just a reminder that if you would like to send us a care package (and we are so thankful for the encouragement!), you can put "no commercial value" or NCV in the space that requests the value of the contents. We will not be selling the wonderful things that come inside our boxes. Although, semi-sweet chocolate chips would probably bring in a lot of money on the SITAG black market!
