Journey of Shawn Peoples' Walk in Grace!

Since we have changed our church name, I thought it was time to change my blog post name. This is no longer gracecommunityhawaii.blogspot.com but is now shawnkpeoples.blogspot.com.

Nick and Suzy Killin are preparing to move here in November also. Last week a couple of the men in our group went to Hickam Airforce Base and handed out shave ice to single airmen.

Pray that we can pull this off. God is teaching me tons of things. I am realizing everyday that I am not capable to do the things God wants of me and that I am to surrender myself to Him and allow the Spirit to do tho
