Sori Dei :(

This past week, the kids at school had a "Sori Dei"(Sorry Day). Here in community this is the second Sori Dei we have been a part of. Sori Dei takes place whenever someone dies who lives (or lived) in the community. Because there are so many relations within the community, on a Sori Dei, school is cancelled for everyone so the family can mourn their loss.
The Sori Dei can happen in each of the communities where the deceased had family. So, this past week school was cancelled in Barunga as well as in our neighboring community, Beswick. As we learn more about it, I'll share with you more!
