Guam Humanities Council Reception

SAMSUNGI am posting from Atlanta, Georgia right now as I am on another fund-raising trip, but I have a little time to post about some of the happenings on Guam last week. Last Tuesday evening Joyce and I were privileged to attend the DJ Gov Housereception for the Guam Humanities Council at the Government House. Three of our PIU students, Mayson Red, Shelterina Alokoa and Nonie Jones, were performing as part of the program. It was a fun night and we got to meet and see a lot of people. We are enjoying the closer connections that PIU is building with the Guam community. We also enjoyed the excellent Chamorro food.

Shelter read an essay about her experience as a Micronesian-American and Mayson performed his original poem about unity

Some edifying smiles!
