Let me show you what I can do!

This is our Project Overseer. "I think I pulled something."

"Can someone help me down?"

Here is a member of the branch committee demonstrating some of his natural abilities.

Everybody hang on!

This is an acceptable form of transportation here. There are only 6 in the back of this truck.

Bible study anyone?

Here is Mik on a call. This turned out to be an amazing experience. Arrangements were made to come back the following weekend but the householder asked if they could come back within 2 days. Hopefully Mik can post more info about this call later.

Forget about the snakes!

On our way down to the waterfall.

I thought these guys were gonna have to carry me down the mountain. Note to self: Don't get old. Wait a sec, isn't talking to ones self a sign of old age?

Girl power!

Hiking, swimming and rock climbing, all in a normal day for these girls.

White men can jump!

I was going for a belly flop but chickened out

The Crew.

Our life here in Guam would not be the same without these guys. They are always looking for some place for us to hike. This one led us down a very steep mountain side, through the jungle and a river and we ended up at this waterfall and swimming hole.

What snakes?

This is the only "brown tree snake" that we have seen here in Guam. So to all you people so worried for us, you now can rest knowing that we are safe.

After a little hike through the jungle we came to this.

Hiking Through the Jungle

The best thing about Guam...no poison oak.

Ernie Holding Jack Fruit

These fruit taste amazing. Here is Ernie, our missionary roommate, holding these enormous things. They tell us that in the Philippines they are twice as big.

We love demolition days!

These are all of the internationals serving here in Guam. As you can see, we were hanging out at the beach.

Hungry?

Here are some of the guys that are here at the branch.

The guy on the far left is one of our new brothers. He was the only one baptized Saturday so the talk and prayer were all for him...they even used his name. It was cool.

This is a picture of the couple from Kentucky that we live with, Erin and Jeremy Topping.

We actually are working...

We thought we should post some pics of us actually getting dirty
...because, believe it or not, we don't go to the beach every day. This is the first room we renovated. Jay and another brother were skimcoating the ceilings and had already put thirty bags of mud up. The next morning, hollow spots were found from the previous add on. So down came the thirty bags. Lots of work.

Here is the missionary home we are staying in with a missionary couple that has been in missionary work for twenty seven years. We are there with another international volunteer couple. This is the view from the front and our living room. We walk to morning worship every morning. It is about a seven minute walk.

Guam Is Awesome!

We are so sorry it took so long for us to get our blog going. We do not have internet at the missionary home we are staying in so we have to go to the branch for internet. This place is incredible. The people here are wonderful. Service is so amazing. People love the Bible here and are really interested in what you have to say. Everyone is friendly. We have been out three times now. We get to work with the missionaries often. The snorkeling is like nothing we have ever seen. It is like stepping into an aquarium. Hundreds of colorful fish everywhere. Our job at the branch is renovating four rooms. We demo, and then start from scratch. We are working with four other international volunteers. Two from Florida and two from Kentucky. We are really having a blast but wish all of you could be here with us. Hope you enjoy our pictures.

We leave in two days!

Well, it is almost here. We want to thank everyone who has encouraged us along the way. It is because of all of your help that we are getting to experience this priveledge. Thank you!

We just got the call.

On Friday, December 12th, we got the call from Brad Housner. We are going to Guam! We can not wait. Our assignment starts March 1st. We have created this blog so everyone can come to Guam with us. We hope you enjoy it.
