Today in Missions History: November 27, 1900 -- The first American Protestant missionaries arrive in Guam. The first Protestant missionaries on Guam were two Chamorro brothers, Jose and Luis Custino, who came to the island from Hawai’i. The Custino brothers’ surname was actually Castro, of the “Kaban” branch of that family. They had left Guam many years prior, during the Spanish era, on the whaling ships and, after their travels, eventually settled in Hawai’i.
