We've had very memorable moments conducting bible studies with a variety of people with different circumstances and from various islands. Recently a friend of ours (Kinohi) went back to Hawaii and he asked us if we could take over a study he started with Diego & Surly. They are one of the sweetest, kindest and most generous people you will meet.

This home is on a street called Takano. Jehovah has blessed us with many great experiences on this street. We like to refer to this street as "our street" to the friends. Stefany and Jasmine are teaching the bible with some younger ones at their home on Takano street.
The young ones that Jasmine and Stefany were studying with are captured in this picture. They love to discuss the stories in the Bible Story book.
Well one day we were in the process of documenting all of the businesses in the area so that we can create business territories in order preach to all of the business people. As we were driving, we saw a very small hut/shack/building that just had an OPEN sign in the window. So we decided to just stop and find out what they are selling and if its a business we should add to the territory. This very nice woman came out to greet us and she has been running a food stand for 4 years. It started as just a hot dog stand but it has grown to a pretty busy lunch plate business for the workers in the area. We told her why we were in the area and that we were trying to reach all of the business people to share a bible message with them. She was so thrilled to hear how we have volunteered our time to teach people the bible. She apologized for not having enough food for all of us because she only makes enough for her normal lunch customers and they call in advance. We explained that we were ok because we didn't stop for the food. Well she INSISTED that we sit at her picnic table and she started to fry up some mighty tasty fried chicken, steamed rice (Finadene on the side...kinda like Chamorro soy sauce), corn and drinks. She was so sweet and she just kept bringing the very tasty food out to us. She sat down with us and we talked for awhile about the bibles message of hope and how Jehovah will bring an end to all of the problems that mankind is experiencing (we gave her the Would You Like To Know The Truth Tract). I forgot to mention that before stopping at this last business, we were already talking about what we were going to have for
lunch! Thank you Jehovah.

After a wonderful day in the ministry we love to relax in the hammock and talk story. This is the home of the Castillejos family that hosts the meeting for the field ministry a couple of days each week.
