The beauty of this island amazes me over and over day after day.

Hector and I are involved in lots of things together and apart. We teach, visit villages, and work to support our teammates.

Before the fasting month starts my "family" here and I all spent a day at the beach together. The baby boy is the second grand baby in the family, Firman. My buddy Agis loved playing in the water and sand. I wish you could have herd her laugh.

Hector asked, "Do you want to be the second love of my life for the rest of your life?" I said yes.

Everybody gets together to help get ready for a wedding party.

Meat and rice and


more RICE!

A typical wedding party. They have already had the wedding ceremony in the mosque.

This is a wedding reception where we eat "all together." Sometimes this means 4 people eating from the same platter but here we each have our own plate of rice and share the other main dishes.
