A Very Fun Day!

Another packed day for us here in Chiba New Town. The four of us all had various tasks to finish, including insulating the church ceiling, weed wacking, cleaning and organizing around the church, shopping, prayer meeting, and English classes.

Two classes stand out in particular. Mrs. I. has a Bible lesson after her English lesson and I was able to teach it today. She was in John 20, learning about Thomas and his belief in Jesus Christ. What joy to share the Gospel with her! It was one of the high points of the day. This evening I was helping Mrs. Yoshida teach two girls, ages 11 and 15, in a Japanese home. The Mother speaks just a word or two of English, but she and I talked some through interpretation. Pray for this dear woman who invited Mrs. Yoshida and I to come again any time. Mrs. Yoshida shared with me that an open invitation like this is not common.

Other prayer needs include:
Money and manpower to finish the church building
$750.00 for a church sign
$3-5,000 to remove bamboo and other debris from the property
Salvation of Mr. O (he is coming to church regularly).
Strength and health for the Yoshidas
