Another Fun Weekend on Guam

SAMSUNGThis last weekend was a busy, but fun, one here. Often we work on Saturday and relax on Sunday (unless we have some church responsibilities – and we enjoy those too) but this week we were pretty busy with fun things. Friday night we went to a concert at the Lutheran Church of Guam by a gospel group from Russia – they were really good. Then we headed back to campus to meet Eric and Karyn Sorenson who were on their way to SAMSUNGYap to do some ministry with a group from their church in Santa Barbara. It was good to see them again. Saturday we headed to Titus’ basketball game as I posted earlier. After the game we headed to the Agana Mall to see Titus and Courage get their A – Club award for their good grades in school. Then on Saturday evening we went to the Micronesia Island Fair. This year there was only a little rain this time. It had been rained out by Typhoon Dolphin. We enjoyed all the Micronesian arts and crafts and Joyce bought some plants. There is always a lot to do on this little island.

I didn’t know there was Gospel music in Russia. It was interesting to hear Russians singing African-American style Gospel music with a bit of a Russian accent. I was even more surprised when they said their songs were mostly written by a guy from Sweden. They were really good. They had performed at Disney World. I had a good chat with the male singer, who was on Old Testament teacher at St. Petersburg Christian University

I have never before had our picture taken with a bottle of Tabasco Sauce and a jar of peanut butter and jelly

Even though there was a lot of cool stuff for sale, Joyce only bought a couple plants
