Today, we provided meals in a small community hall in Kesennuma that serves as a shelter. This shelter had been crowded in March, but three months after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, only ten people remain. The residents told us they were glad to have some time to go back to their wrecked houses and clean out tsunami mud while we cooked for them. Since the earthquake, they have been providing meals for many, and they haven't had much time to themselves.
After 5 days in the disaster area, SWTJ teamwork proceeds smoothly...
There is plenty for all...

We had a heart-warming exchange with the people in the community hall, and it was nice to have time to talk. Before leaving, the residents presented us with a handmade box. Thank you!
