This week's highlights included: 1) Discovering our stuff still hasn't been shipped from the mainland, (2) enjoying our tonwhome in Dededo (pic living room/kitchen), (3) a joint service on Sunday with all three Guam churches. The pic shows the diversity of ages and ethnic mix. We were at St. Andrew's on the Philippine Sea at Agat, a lovely village, and gateway to the South, the less developed and more enticing part of the Island for us.
On Sunday after church we stopped at Micronesia Divers' Assn. and bought snorkels, masks, boots and fins. You need boots to protect your feet from the coral. One mask Jane tried on made her look like Mrs. Darth Vader, but we bought more conventional materials that we hope to try out soon. Our plan is to move into SCUBA classes later in the fall.
School starts at St. John's August 8 and this week Ben will be participating in some pre-school events with faculty and staff. Enrollment is above 550 and that makes everyone happy.
Gas is now $3.49 a gallon for regular. Good thing we don't have far to drive!

I sure enjoy the posts. Sounds like you two are really getting into the spirit of Luke 10.
Weather here has been unusually hot and the economic rumblings of a dipping DOW are making good excuses to be cranky.
Thank God for the ballast of spiritual disciplines and the communion of saints to keep us focused on what gives joy in any weather.
