Kakata

Our last visit to Kakata 20th July

Branch Presidency and Relief Society President

Kakata Branch President, President Harmon.

I walked just a few yards through the grass and my trouser bottoms were covered in seeds.
The children offered to clean my trousers.  When you get these seeds on your clothes it referred to as "doing your homework" or "having home work to do", i.e. pull the seeds off your clothes.


Kakata Elders: Skouson, Marondera, Khasiahi, Avornu, Seiya, Egbu (Harbel)
