In 1993, Paul and Doreen, both originally from Honolulu, Hawaii, moved with their family to Kona for a Crossroads Discipleship Training School (CDTS) at the University of the Nations. After finishing DTS, Paul completed the School of Biblical Studies (SBS), while Doreen worked as a teacher at the University of the Nations Pre-school. They worked with Island Breeze Ministries from 1994-96, and helped pioneer the CDTS in Bagio, Philippines before returning to Kona to staff DTS at the UofN. In 2000, the Chinens attended the Leadership Training School (LTS) in New Zealand, where they laid the foundational groundwork to pioneer the Hawaiian Islands Holoholo DTS, which began in January 2001. Their family has traveled throughout Hawaii, to the Olympic games in Atlanta, Canada, the Philippines, Okinawa, Thailand, New Zealand, Korea, Fiji Islands, Samoa, and American Samoa. In 2004, Doreen did her Introduction to Biblical Counseling (IBC) and Addictive Behavior Counseling (ABC) Courses in 2007 both in Kona, Hawaii. She also teaches Plumbline in Holoholo DTS. Paul and Doreen have always been very active in the Kona community and are committed to bringing aloha to Hawaii and beyond. Paul enjoys spending time with the family, sports, paddling, and watching movies. Doreen is a professional dancer, choreographer, and the Queen of hospitality and party planning.  They have five children, some of which have been involved in YWAM and all of which are an essential part of our Holoholo family.
