Personal Narrative: My Visit To Pohnpei

I was in Pohnpei in April for four weeks, during which time I taught in the Bible school four hours a day, five days a week; taught a cell group Bible study one evening in town each week; as well as preached in the church on Sundays (I was preaching six days a week with one day to rest). I have been returning frequently to Pohnpei, and this year was my tenth anniversary since my first visit to Pohnpei in 2002! They have been like my spiritual children in the Lord. (I returned again to Pohnpei in May
2013, and on Mothers’ Day they honored me as their spiritual mother in the church and ministry! That was the first time I’ve ever been honored on Mothers’ Day!)

They asked me to come and give some training to the new teachers, and I was very pleased to see the spiritual growth of the church and school since my last visit there in 2010. There was an increased spiritual hunger, as
I saw many more students and church members coming to the classes and services.
From Pohnpei on Friday, April 27, I flew ten hours to Maui again and ministered to the
Pohnpeians who live there. They are also like my spiritual children. We had powerful meetings each evening, Monday through Friday, April 30 to May 4, because they are greatly hungry for the Word of
God! I was also blessed to share some precious fellowship with them on the weekends. Of course, I did some sightseeing and saw some gorgeous scenery too! It was a blessed time, and I am thankful to
God for letting me enjoy it! I returned home again on Tuesday, May 8.

I just returned home from a very fruitful missionary journey to Kenya and India in September
