In Monterey the rains have caused crop damage especially to cotton. The community urges strict school attendance for eight months, cites II Corinthians 13 14 on parental duty to educate children, and calls for sacrifice to give every child access to schooling. Local residents visit relatives, travel for college arrangements, and attend services as the town notes various family and social updates.
