Marshall,

I love your story and pun! Those of us who went to the villages during the 70`s have so many great, and funny stories. I am not sure those outside “us” would enjoy them, but I think we can fill the time sharing them as we wait for everyone to get to heaven so we can march in together, singing of course!

Jack

It was like a fifteenth century village with rock and thatch roofed houses and often dirt floors. It was not easy living there, but we learned so much. Grateful for such experiences including hosting the World's Fair of the 24 Human Development Projects in Kwang Yung Il Ri.

Joe was coming from Kawangware to Rome to celebrate the initiation of the Trastevere project.  He arrived.  He declared that we were not doing another urban project and told us to start making another plan.  That was on Saturday and we had an open house planned for Sunday with more than 20 religious orders coming.  He changed his tickets and left Sunday morning, even before his luggage lost in Khartoum had caught up with him.

He said first we tried to do a whole nation with the selection of Majuro in the Marshall Islands and then we tried to do a whole island with Jeju Do. We finally got the size right after that, but it is part of our history in discovery of what is the right size for an HDP.
