Tri-language Study

This Wednesday, two sisters from the Japanese group came in service with us. Sister Santos came along with me on Imalia's study. Imalia's mom, Merlina, decided to sit in on the study. She speaks Ponapean and some English. So we had an English, Ponapean and Japanese study....FUN! And then there was Merianne....She came in costume.
Merlina and her husband, Peter, have their own Bible study on Thursday nights. We're enjoying spending the evening with them. And contrary to the face that Merlina is making for the camera, she has a great smile and so does Peter. Hopefully, we'll have a photo of them together soon.

Hairy He-Goat

We have seen a variety of goats here in Guam. This was a new one to us.

The Spirit is Willing...

When it's naptime, it's naptime!

Pago Bay

We pass this bay most everday. It's between our home in Mangilao and Yona, the southernmost part of our territory.

Playtime

In the local mall (yes, there's a mall here in Guam), there's a small fun area with a carousel, bumper cars and a tiny rollercoaster. After a nice morning in service with good friends, the three of us went to play a little. John risked life and limb riding the 'Creature Coaster' with Jeremiah. You must have to be about three feet tall to truly enjoy it because Jeremiah thought it was the greatest thing ever!
Don't you love Jeremiah's big grin! It melts us.

Kite Flying

This morning, this unique kite-flying technique caught our eye!
To the left, just out of photo range, we noticed a young woman hanging out laundry. She was approached and said she had a few minutes to hear a scripture while she continued hanging laundry. After a brief discussion of two scriptures, she was shown a Bible Teach book--this was the first Saturday of the month...why not see if she'd like to study! She said she already had one and that she and her sisters studied in the past, but they moved and lost contact with the sister that used to come. Carla accepted a study and said that her 14-year-old sister, Grace, would like to study again too.
