Ricken's Retreat Remarks

Katie and I just got back from the store. On our way there, Ricken hitched a ride from us. He was on his way to the volleyball game, though when he gestured to show where he was going I thought it looked more like fighting than spiking. Anyway, Ricken is an interesting fellow. He is an average student, a nice looking young man, a "good" guy, but every now and then this mischievousness just spreads across his face. He gets this "I'm being naughty" grin and twinkle in his eye, then he erupts with impish laughter. At these moments, you're never sure of what he's thinking or what he just said in Chuukese to his buddies that made them laugh. Once he was cornered in the car, I asked him about the retreat. He said it was "fun." When I asked why, he said, "Because I confessed my sins." Interesting... Whether that's true or he's playing, I don't know, but pray for Ricken and his rascally grin. :)
