LONG TIME NO UPDATE!

7/23/2017

 

We've been really busy and haven't posted in a long time but we back we back okay okay

 

Thursday and Friday were just usual days of English Camp and VBS but on Friday there was the weekly Shopping Day for the kids to buy toys and candies with their tickets they get throughout the week from the activities and classes. 

 

Missionary Kang and their family treated our team and Irvine Bethel out to a shabu shabu/sushi buffet dinner on Thursday Night. It was sooooo good and we got to spend more time to bond with the team and rest and prepare for the next day. Sadly, we didn't take any pictures of the dinner ):

After Friday's English Camp and VBS, we went out to Ikebukuro where we went sightseeing and shopping!

On Saturday, we spent the day resting and we got to go to an onsen which is a Japanese Hot Springs and spa. After a long week's worth of work, we got to just relax with traditional Japanese kimonos, good food, and great fellowship!

 

Japanese soba - just one of the many foods at the spa!

 

 

Afterwards, we all came back to prepare for Sunday Worship tomorrow and also for next week's VBS for Ryugasaki Church!

 

PRAYER REQUESTS:

1. Ryugasaki Church: On Monday we will be heading out to Ryugasaki and meeting up with the rest of the team on Tuesday! Please pray for Pastor Cho, who is recovering and for the team to be unified once we all get together because there will be many people who don't even know each other and many of them coming straight from Korea. Pray for safe travels and team unity!

2. Sunday Worship: Tomorrow's Sunday Worship will be a little different and we will be expecting a lot more people to be attending this week so we pray that God will work through this Sunday Service to touch the hearts of those who do not yet believe and for God to use Pastor Kang and our team as vessels for His Word to be preached. 

3. Tokyo Vision Church: As our time in Higashikurume and at Tokyo Vision Church comes to a close within the next few days, please keep Missionary Kang, their family, and their ministry in your prayers. Many kids and parents have come to Christ through the English Camp and VBS ministry here and we are so honored and thankful to even be a part of it. Pray for perseverance as we finish things in HIgashikurume and go onto Ryugasaki on Monday! 

 

2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. 4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. // James 1:2-4
