I’m currently in Oahu, Hawaii getting training on how to teach people how to become Community Emergency Response Team members.  I was asked to do this after Sylvia and I went through the CERT training.  Part of the reason for doing this training is that we want the YWAM campus to be equipped for an emergency such as the tsunami.
