Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Most products from Hawaii or fantastic, however, I think I’m a little bit bias!
Refresh my memory: When is the bible study (or meet)? I’m not sure how it works in Discord. Is it live call, just chatting, listening to certain people. Thanks
The Bible study on Prayer Garden is at 8pm est Thursdays. It's takes place on the voice chat section. We send out invite right before so you can just click the link or you can just click the voice chat and join.
Our brother in Christ Justin leads it. However anyone can share thoughts throughout the study. Feel free to ask any and all questions about the study or during the study. Hope to see you there
Thanks, I would have asked you but I can never remember your username. All I see is bright pink 00 and my mind goes straight to that thinking your username starts 00🤣
No worries feel free to ask whoever.
Yeah if you don't have community styling on it showd up kinda weird.
I am at a Bible study right now but after I will Private message you so you can easily find me in your private messages
It’s basically just to chat, I guess there is a Bible study, but I haven’t done that yet. But it would be announced in the general chat. People make conversation, and then you can reply to specific comments. I’m just figuring it out now, but I do like it because the topic is, for the most part, strictly Christian information. There are a couple new young people there, but we’re being gentle with them and welcome them into the fold.
Oh I know I’m biased! Only one week there but I know. That little slice of heaven is so abundant with plants and exotic fruits. I’d “almost” kill to live somewhere like that. We got weeds on the side of the road and they have wild fruit trees. I want to go back so bad but it’s so expensive. In 2011 my mom paid 1,000 for my flight. The other 3 flights were air miles.
Two more weeks and I’ll be in paradise. But I will be working doing home repairs for three weeks, so it’s not gonna be like it has in the past. But I will be able to swim a turtles, so there’s that. It’s just getting off the airplane, you just feel the weight of the world is off of your shoulders. Will send pics.
Does Hawaii still have mask mandates in certain areas? It was very bad for a while. I followed a lot accounts during their protesting.
No, they haven’t had mask mandates probably in at least over 18 months. There were a few stores that forced you to wear masks there, but that didn’t last for long.
No mandates. People still choose to wear masks though. 🙄
