Please stop encouraging elephant deaths by giving ivory amulets/statuary for donations--don't say that your country has made ivory-trading illegal and that fixes everthing--the Church needs to stop using ivory objects of any kind. As long as there is market for it, innocent elephants die to satisfy tha t demand.
