Aww sounds like you guys are having a great time! I'm glad for you. We love Kula..can't believe we waited so long to move up here..lol Mom and dad hate that the grandkids are so far, but we make do. haha
Hope to see you both soon....
Aloha!
Sounds like fun! The kids are good, and I'm at the end of this sickness so we are doing whatever we can to be there tonight. Mahalo for the invite. Joel got a good laugh from the wig comment..lol You are connected with my mom, Brenda Gregory, and her and my dad might be able to come if that's ok..
Looking forward to the fellowship.

Sounds good..right now we have a hose full of sick people..LOL But we would love to fellowship with you all when we are back in the land of the "living" so to speak! haha
Joel's number is 808-463-7207 and mine is 808-357-2241
Aloha, and mahalo for your response.
Sounds like we are doing the same thing here in Kihei with the house church..organic church. That is exciting! We have been meeting for some months now. We always have food and fellowship. We sing, pray, & talk about the things of God just as you do.
We fellowship mostly in our home here in Pi'ilani Village II, but sometimes we go to Lahaina and meet at one of our families homes.
Thank you for the invite!! We extend the same to you and your group.
We meet on Friday or Sat. evenings..whatever works best for our group.
We are so happy to have found this "simple" way to be a church body..I am truly experiencing what it means for the body to be in unity.
Again, mahalo for the response, and I hope we can meet soon!
About the education part....yes there is a lot of scholasticism in many schools. I can't stand the worship of academia. However, so far the schools I've been in I've been able to do a lot of serious research with mentors who live very godly lives centered around Christ and his love for him and people, which has been a real blessing. Much of my time in these schools has trained me as much about logic and being able to systematize so many ideas and truths from the Lord, and thus it has been an enriching experience for me.
As for Maui that sounds really cool. I hope to stay in touch with ya because in about 10 to 12 or so years I'll be eligible to retire from the state (law enforcement officer) and who knows I might like to retire in an area such as that....i've heard good things about it.
Wow, have I let month pass without writing you?!! Sorry.
I am glad your fellowship has come together. Ours has not done so well.
Glad to hear you are moving to Maui, just because you sounded so positive about it. I hope we can meet again before you go. Even though the baby isn't ours, having as part of our home life has made us feel busier. Holding him is wonderful, though! I love this little guy so much and so differently than my own. What a trip!
Thanx for the reply, Doug. I didn't know I was talking to you. I thought it was your wife, Donna, all this time that I was addressing. I appreciate your encouragement about not worrying about doctrinal issues. I have already decided not to get too caught up in the Rapture issue. (no pun intended)
I see myself as a rather intense person now, where I used to be pretty loose about life and death. I had a fear of dying, but had no idea all that is really involved in the matters of the soul. Now my husband thinks I've become a religious fanatic, but he is asking questions too. So, yes, it's a journey. Thanx for hooking me up with Bonnie, and for your responses. Hugz
Thanx for your response. How is it that God told you to move to a place you'd never heard of!? I'm sorry, but I've had so many Christians telling me things and trying to help me, that I get confused sometimes. But, I still want to discuss things. Some people believe in the Rapture, and others have told me it is a false belief and from satan! So, you can understand that I'm cautious about it. Sorry. It's just all so much information at this time. Hope you can understand. It's actually kinda scarey cause I got involved in the Mormon church for 2 yrs. before I figured out they were not Christian. But, that's what drew me to the Christian faith, so no regrets. But, I didn't know there was so much confusion out there. Bonnie
Thanx for the instructions. I'll try again. So you think I can just ask God to lead me to a house church too. That just sounds so simple. I don't ask God for many things because there are so many people asking for answers. I didn't think this case was so important. But I suppose I could try, since both of you think it would help.
