The month of July marks the time of the year where young Pacific Islanders, mostly Micronesians come together each year to play the sports of men’s basketball and women’s volleyball games. This event began fourteen years ago and has been growing since and positively impacting many young Pacific Islanders.
Although fewer teams showed up this year in comparison to previous events, the outcome was overwhelming and beyond expectation in both the sports and ministry activities. We thought the cause of the team reduction was due to the inflating fuel cost these days, which may be true in a humanly perspective, but could it be that it was meant to be this way? Time management for the games was good and in turn, we have experienced more productive time for ministry activities.
