Here is Scott Van Dyken's son standing next to Ernest who is the True Friends orphan care project president and an elder in his local CCAP (Church of Central Africa, Presbyterian) church.

Here Scott "hands over the keys" of a much needed motorcycle (with funds coming from Grand Rapids, Michigan) to help with with travel to many remote areas where the orphans are being cared for. In Scott's words, "If you are wondering about my rather informal attire for the solemn event of handing over the keys, here is my excuse: I had just spent the last two hours running up and down the road, holding onto the back rack of the motorcycle, shouting instruction and encouragement to Ernest. There were a couple of times when I thought it would end with a disaster of some sort or another. In the end, he calmed down and started to get the hang of managing a task with both hands and both feet, while remembering to balance."

Some small buildings are also being put up in the remote areas (with funding from the St. Thomas Youth Group and the Sheffield Business Group)
