Sssssnnnaaaakkeeeeeee
This is the lovely KUTJUNGKA Parish Church. The first church was established in 1942. The church that stands here today is beautiful. All are invited to mass surrounded by great artworks and a strong indigenous theme. The service involves a lot of singing, both in English and Kukatja ( pronounced Googajar). Instead of the bells during breaking the bread, they use clap sticks. The whole thing is a wonderful experience.

At the end of mass. The congregation sings a song of healing while the Elders bless the sick.
Part of our reality up here are snakes. This King Brown was visiting my back yard. My house is less than 5 meters from the school fence, so it had to be killed. It is also called a Mulga snake and is a venomous . It is one of the longest venomous snakes in the world, and is the second-longest in Australia.
The king brown snake has the largest recorded venom output of any snake.
As you can see it was about 6 foot long!!
Other big things in our community are the grass hoppers. This was on my screen door and I hoped that he/she stayed where it was!!
