Mayor Voisin identified the current needs of the community of La Foa. She stated that starting in their youth people have little direction for themselves. They then become adults and realize that their lives are unfulfilled. She also shared her view that there exists a lack of communication regarding rights and responsibilities.
The meeting was ended on a personal note with Mayor Voisin and the missionaries talking about their individual lives. They then parted, anxious to work together for the improvement of the community.
