Uncle Bill is the Director and Assistant Professor of the Jonathan Nāpela Center for Hawaiian Language and Cultural Studies at BYUH and Captain of our University's voyaging canoe, 'Iosepa. His remarks will focus on Lā'ie as "the gathering place" for the early Saints and provide our 'ohana with a spiritual foundation of what this place means to us.
A proud alumnus of The Kamehameha School for Boys and BYU Hawai'i, Uncle Bill went on to obtain his Juris Doctors in Family Law from BYU Provo in 1984. His wealth of knowledge in the Hawaiian Culture, his genuine Aloha Spirit, and his unwavering faith in the gospel will make this Gospel Forum a night to remember.
Please bring your friends, spouses, and 'ohana to this event as it is open to our University and Lā'ie Community. Refreshments will be provided following Uncle Bill's remarks.
