One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I lived in the Marshall Islands in 1981 and 1982. My father was there as a doctor without borders (no affiliation with the organization). I learned how to speak a dozen phrases of Marshallese, before coming back to the States. The experience was life-changing.
Teach, Learn, Share
I teach Reading and Math online to children whose families are in the lowest income brackets and who are attending Title I Schools. I get to use my Spanish almost every day.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share my time and my personal history and listen to theirs, and if they want it, I can give each host a T-shirt for my new organization (Board Gaming Enthusiasts for Jesus), and a copy of my typewritten testimony of how Jesus saved my life! If desired, I can fix computers and provide Spanish lessons.
