What is Holden?

How can I describe what Holden Village is to those who have not been there?
What is this Holden where Art and I will be spending a year working and serving ? I think I will begin this introduct with pictures.

First we take a boat...

Then we get on a bus...

We come to work...

We come for the food......

We come for the worship.......

We come for the fun....

and more fun....
I wonder how we can live in a place with 6 months of snow....

The fun will get us through..
