October 24 – November 2: Wallis and Futuna Islands

In late October I flew to the French overseas territory of the Island of Wallis in the South Pacific near Fiji and Tonga to join with a King’s Kids outreach team. The Island of Wallis has about 8,000 inhabitants and the Island of Futuna around 7,000. We had a great time sharing with a local congregation as well as with the team. The warmth and openness of the  people was very encouraging.
