A hundred fold- Really!

Its a neat feeling to experience a love like our brotherhood!
It's the most wonderful family!

The Most Important Day of the Year.

For the first time in many years I was able to attend the Memorial with my mom and my brother. (That's my little cousin in the front.)
I pray that we will all be servants of Jehovah one day.

Thanks to the friends in California that keep my family in mind while they are out in service. It means a lot to me.

We Are Everywhere!

What an Exciting Month! I just kept getting reports from friends around the world about how many pioneers there are in their congregation this month. Jehovah's people are everywhere.

Here are some of the Pioneers in Pleasant Valley and Concord!

This is certainly not an island...

Of course I've seen snow before, but it has been awhile. Thanks to some friends I got to have a little fun in the snow.

Summers, Thanks for having Mae and I come over! You guys are family! Thanks for all of the wonderful support and encouraging words. I love you guys! What a privilege to be fellow workers with you.

Boys...well your not boys anymore. Its was nice to spend sometime with young people who really love Jehovah. Keep up the Pioneering, and I hope to see you out here soon! (You won't need the Jackets)

It's Always nice to be with Family...

Many of you know I went back to California to be with my family for an unexpected little stay. You don't realize how much you miss them until you are with them again.

The ministry is going great!

Some of "The First Time..."

The first time I gave a talk in Kosrean. (I don't think the congregation could understand me, but they all had so many nice things to say afterwards)


The first time Anna Belle made dinner for us.


The first time I went to an actual farm to get vegetables.


The first "girls night" at our place.


The first time I grated coconut to make a hair conditioner so my hair can grow long like the locals. Mary was there to make sure I did it right.


The first time I had to evacuate because of a tsunami warning.
This is the house of one of the families in the congregation. Many in the house are surrounding neighbors that needed a high place to evacuate to. Everything turned out ok here in Kosrae.

The new Kingdom Hall

This young boy is often found naked on the kingdom hall sidewalk making a mess. He gets talked to a lot about that, but he has a smile to die for.



The two kids on the left are Jaraski and Connie. Jaraski is 3 and has memorized many kingdom songs and the books of the Bible. Their parents are so encouraging and a great example. They often come over to our house and generously share the fruits they've grown.Yoko is the 5 year old girl on the right. Her mom has been studying on and off for a few years now. Last Sunday we were excited to see Yoko at the meeting, but she was alone...she had walked by herself. She lives about 1 mile north of the kingdom hall.

Back in Kosrae...

Not for construction- the Kingdom hall is all finished. I'm here for the preaching work!

I Left Guam, and there are few stops on other islands before I get to Kosrae. To Our suprize- when the plane stopped in Pohnpei, Anna Belle (my partner) got on and we were assigned to sit right next to each other.



This is our house and welcoming crew! Thanks to everyone who helped get the place ready.

Our house is called the Akiko house. (I think KHCG named it.) It has 3 bedrooms, mangroves in the back and the ocean in the front. We have a breadfruit tree and a couple of tangerine trees in our yard-Yum!

They followed me...

Joi and Damali flew to Guam. We didn't have to say our goodbyes in Saipan. We were able to hang out before I officially left for Kosrae.


It was Joi's 1st time to Guam- everything, and I mean everything was so exciting her.


I'm so happy you guys came out!


Seeing all the friends in Guam got me more ready for my assignment. (Thank You my LEE family.)


Kevin Lee just got back from helping out with construction in Ebeye. Glad we could join the party.


Delores- thanks for the super fun day! Yogurtland was awesome.


.

I hate the airport...

It's because of the people I've met and the experiences I've had on Saipan that have helped me to know Jehovah more. Thank you for all of your loving support. I'm super excited about my new assignment, but this is the part I didn't want to go through- Saying goodbye. I miss you already.

Saipan's 1st ever Scavenger Hunt!

6 car groups, 15 items, and 30 hunters!

Saying "See you later"...

I tried my best to make my rounds to say goodbye to the friends in Saipan. Here are some of the pics...

Farewell, Friends, and Fun

With the Pfisters off to the Philippines and me off to Kosrae- the congregations threw us a Farewell party. Food, entertainment, and fun loving people. What better way to send us off. I can't handle the thought of leaving my Saipan family. But that's the thing about family- they are always your family right! I LOVE YOU!

Last Hoorah w/ Pfisters...

The Pfisters received a new assignment in the Philippines. They wanted to go to Managaha one more time, so that's where we went.

Man, are we going to miss them. You guys have been such a great asset to Saipan. Thanks for having me over for all of those "talks". I can really see how Jehovah was using you to answer some of my prayers.

When the Cat's away...

Tatay(Dad)Greg was working late on a Monday evening and Nanay(Mom)KB thought she would have a bunch of girls over for some games. Thanks KB, it was fun! Hope your neighbors were okay with all the noise.


These girls QUACK me up!
Game Winners and Weirdos!...you decide who's who

What's Cooking?

Gumbo Party!!! Thanks Uncle Barak.
Barak Cook, cooked up the biggest pot of gumbo and invited everyone and their mama to come and join in. If you don't like Gumbo- you haven't had Barak's Gumbo. I think i might wear stretchy pants next time, so that the thought of unbuttoning the top button of my pants and embarrassing myself wont come up.

Welcome to Saipan Mae Wang!

We had to hit Managaha. We couldn't have gone on a better day.

Mae Wang helped make a nice dinner for some special people.
Pfisters, Odanis, Denson and Damli Renguul.


Mae Wang, thank you so much for coming out here. It meant a lot to me. Thanks for bringing all of the goodies from Cali. I especially enjoyed the gifts from the friends. Please give them all of my love and more. You will forever be my ATE (pronounced ahteh, Filipino word for big sister)

Mae Wang is in Micronesia!

My dear friend, Mae Wang, flew all the way here from California to come and see me! What a wonderful feeling to be able to share a bit of my life here in Micronesia.

First stop guam...


Mae Getting a little adventerous.

Kayaking behind the Lee's house in the open ocean. I tried to convince Mae Wang I knew what I was doing. I don't think I pulled it off.

We attended the S.A.D. and toured the Branch. I was so excited to introduce some of my Guam family to Mae.

And we are off to Saipan...
