Dunkin' Daniel

On Sunday November 1st my co-worker Kalvin was baptized by Austin Evers who is the head of the University of Guam Student ministry.

He made this decision after studying the scriptures on Baptism for about one year. I believe it was Matthew 3:15 from Jesus's baptism which helped him decide to be baptized. Matthew 3:15 states "Jesus replied, "Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness." Then John consented."

After his baptism, Kalvin decided to change his name to "Daniel". He said he wanted to do that because Daniel (the prophet) was a man of prayer.... Also it was the name of his grandfather.

Here is Jen, Daniel, and I after his baptism.

One Snake Down --- a Kajillian more to go....

Here are some of the female students posing with a famous Guam brown tree snake. Of course famous Brown tree snake catcher, Joyce Owen caught it and froze it to death first. She was hoping to use the bones to be made into jewelry, however this snake was a bit too short. Maybe next time Joyce.

It's All a Mystery

During October the Women of PIU were summoned for a "Mystery Dinner". The staff and faculty women prepared all types of dishes and the mystery was not just what you would eat but in what order. There were five places serving food. One place served drinks. Then another main courses. The others included snacks, rice, and salad. In the end we all met together for dessert and games. Here are Jayleen and Alicia playing a fun game.

Dorbo, KeKe, and Tyleen came in style and looking good.
Anne Marie, Meyou, and Jayleen enjoyed all the delicious food.
Giftlyn, Aileen, Lani, and Teisy enjoy their dessert.
Jonie, Maggie, Kita, and Sophie also seem to be enjoying themselves.
Drinks of Punch and Chocolate Milkshakes were served at my apartment and enjoyed by all.
