Hey everyone! Just thought it might be a good time to give you a bit of an update on what we've been up to. If you look in my last couple of posts you'll find links to photo albums and a video. Check them out, if you haven't already.

We've been really busy. Saturday nights there's a youth service that's open and advertised at several churches, and they asked us to run the whole service the last two saturdays. Pretty fun. We've been doing a bit of that.... helping with and participating in church services. Last sunday we helped at a korean church.

We're getting the ball rolling on a anti-alcohol abuse program for kids here. The goal is to create something that's specifically targeted at Guam and other pacific islanders, rather than just using something that's come from the mainland and a culture that is somewhat of a mystery. It's a several month project... our role will primarily be gathering data, by running focus groups of teenagers and finding out what they're hearing about alcohol and what their view of it is. We have a meeting with some important lady in about half an hour.

Went to Inarajan pools yesterday, and met a 14 year old kiwi and did backflips with him for a while. That was fun.

Sometimes people.... the people I live with... can be frustrating. It's not easy to spend almost 24/7 around most people. I'm sure I'm frustrating too. But it's going fine.

Went to the skate park the other night. That was fun too.

K gotta go. Hope you're all doing good!
