Ohwa Christian School Pohnpei Graduation

SAMSUNG            I am back on Guam after a couple weeks away. I flew back from Hawaii, arrived on Guam and SAMSUNG            went straight to our PIU annual fund-raising barbecue. I will post some pictures from that later. In the meantime I will get caught up on my travels in Pohnpei last week. Last Saturday I was one of the speakers at the graduation at Ohwa Christian High School. Our alum, Saladier Ilai is on the faculty there and took most of these pictures. Several of these graduates plan to be on campus at PIU this coming Fall. In fact, I brought a couple of applications back to Guam with me from the graduation and several others are in the process of completing their applications.

Senator Rory Respicio from the Guam legislature was the keynote speaker and I gave the
“words of wisdom.”

The graduates were, of course, deeply attentive to the speeches

There was quite a celebration outside after the ceremony. Note also that they gave me a special parking place. Smile
