A friend from Japan to settle in Hawaii
This past Friday I finanally met Yuri sensei, Midori and Jerry. They are truly wonderful people, so true to the heart and warm loving. Yuri Sensei with full of life I can see she's happy to be close to Trent sensei, a man with full of love for his Yuri and knowledge of martial art behind him. With Yuri sensei's smile, Rev Elias knows that it's all about the love!

To Maui for a wedding
As we leave from Honolulu to Maui on the 5:15am flight, the morning still shows the beautiful full moon with a hint of orange color from the rising sun upon her face. Mahalo KeAkua i keia la he kou maua iho oli I kanani i keia.
Before we headed on the Hana, we stopped at Iao Needle and the cultural garden a nice place to go for a picnic. (maybe next time)
As we headed on our way to Hana's winding road you can enjoy the beautiful foliage of helekonia and lauae fern and possibly lilikoi fruit better known as passion fruit. We've learned to always give yourself extra time our gps system gave us 40 minutes to our destination... TOTALLY INCORRECT... it took us approximately 2 hours, giving touring drivers, and on coming cars on sometimes a single lane road when it gets to multiple hairpin turns. You'll also find tourist out of their cars WATCH FOR TOURIST taking pictures of waterfalls and streams along the mountain side. When we finally reached Hamoa the beach was simply breath taking. Rev Elias already knew where to stop, you just had to be there to see it.
Almost secluded but you just have to be there before the crowd sets in. Get there early... no problem on having your family picnic there. While Kevin (the beautiful bride and Leonard somewhere on the street side looking out for us, but little did you know we arrived at our final destination 30 minutes after the Schwaigers got to the beach. Like the bride, .... of course simply beautiful. The picnic area overlooking the beach, (right in the middle of everything) just a little on the right of the beach is the birth place of an infamous female of royalty. If you know who she is comment it back to us.

At Watabe Wedding
Thank you Hanako for the interview, a coordinator of Honukailani Chapel staff in Ko'Olina. In no doubt Rev. Elias always ready for any challenges in between weddings. You can call him Pastor, Kumu, Kahu, Reverend, or wedding minister. We call him truely a "man of God".
note: the website is in Japanese of course, when in website don't forget to translate in english.
Great smile!
If your not tuned into with doing the "Shaka",
here's another way explained by Rev. Elias,
"moshi moshi" a way of answering a phone in Japanese.
Interesting interview you can view pictures in the blog done by coordinators from Watabe Weddings Hawaii.

Loulu Palms... Thank you
Want to thank Elias Gonzales, along with business partner Lorenzo Pitts, and the Loulu Palms Estates for allowing Rev. Parker to be a part of their ministry staff. A beautiful wedding presided with cool breezes in the air for Nathan and Ivy. Love always prevails over everything, but you had to be there to experience the chuckle among everyone between bad times and poor times.
