Saying “Goodbye” to Daniel

We are saying “goodbye” to Daniel Assito, the PIU assistant dean of men, this week. Daniel is moving on to become a counselor at the College of Micronesia in Chuuk. Daniel came to us (when his name was Kalvin) through our Chuuk teaching facility to the Guam campus in 2004. He graduated in 2008 with a bachelors degree in biblical studies and immediately began working in our Student Life department. He has performed a lot of tasks for us, from security, to barbecue supervisor, to student counselor and mentor. He has also taken several classes in our seminary. Daniel was also one of the leaders of last year’s mission trip to Papua, Indonesia. He said that “it was hard to leave my PIU family after living here for eight years,” but his heart is to “do ministry with my own people.”

We are very excited about this new opportunity for Daniel and our prayers go with him to Chuuk. We have seen God working in His life these past eight years to make him ready for this next step in his ministry. So congratulations Daniel and may God bless you as you go!
