Last night we had our campus community group over to our house for a little barbecue and fellowship time. Joyce bbq'd the chicken, the Boydstons brought over some salad and dessert and we had a pretty good meal. Our community groups are a good way for the faculty and staff to connect with the students and for the on campus and commuter students to get to know one another better too. After dinner we watched a documentary video about how our present Guam PIBC campus was built back in 1998 by several volunteer groups from Germany and we talked about the investment and sacrifice Liebenzell Mission Germany and these volunteers had made so that we can be here. It was a good reminder. We also looked at old pictures, told jokes and stories. I think a good time was had by all.
This picture is of me with a couple of our commuter students, Rommel Carino and his wife Joy and three kids from the Philippines - and Esther (left-front) from Palau. We have several students now with families (we even have a couple grandparents attending PIBC - it is not just for 20 somethings) and it is always nice to have their whole families involved in campus life.
Alvin and Giftleen (on the left) and Mavrick (on the right also enjoyed the food and fellowship.
