Joe Finao's Going Home Celebration

Joe, I know you smiled, God smiled, we all smiled as we witnessed all your children rise to the occasion of planning your last day. 

All the intricate details that went into planning and executing the plan was pure perfection. We are so proud of our FINAO kin. We know your parents prayers for each of you still live on from the grave. As you each grieve in your own way, hold on to HOPE. 

The hope that Joe & Malae instilled in you, hope that Jesus walks with you, hope that your parents are closer to you now more than ever. May their godly example continue to shape and mold each of you. SBAOG will always be your home, as it was your parents. Enjoy this digital footprint of your dads day that Baylee captured. Super proud of each you. Love, #teamSialoi

Thank you to Ivo and Baylee for these wonderful memories. Our first Mother's Day in our own home. Mother's are the glue that hold a family together. Often, we wear several hats, are underappreciated and unpaid but we would not have it any other way. Love is the root that drives us to do what we do day in and day out. Shout out to all the mothers!! #SBAOG

Love & Loss

As our church has experienced great loss at the start of 2022.... I remain consumed by God's love. As our church group prepares to go to Hawaii for SDC, I'm experiencing mixed emotions. But I wanted to pen my feelings to encourage my kin. G R I E F is real and it is different for each of us.

He hears your thoughts and feels your pain. He can handle what you are feeling if you give it to Him. Whether it be pain, anger, numbness, shock or sorrow.
