Thank you!

Can you believe we are leaving for Japan tomorrow morning?  God has truly blessed our time in America.  Our sending church, FBC Arlington, has approved us to serve in Japan for the next two years.  We  know many of you have prayed for us, provided financial support, and made our time here enjoyable.  We want to say “THANK YOU!” to each one of you!  We will do our best to keep in touch with you and we would love to know how we can pray for you.  We trust God will continue to do amazing things in Japan and we can’t wait to share His love with many Japanese people.  We appreciate your continued prayers.  Thank you so much for walking this journey with us!

We are thankful for everyone who has prayed for us and encouraged us as we prepared for our next term.

Spring and Summer Memories

August 15, 2017

Hello!  We pray you are doing well and having a wonderful summer.

We are visiting our home church in Texas for a month and enjoying seeing family and friends.

We wanted to share about some of the special memories from this past spring and summer!

Our church hosted a team from Nuuanu Baptist Church in Hawaii. We had a great fellowship with them!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This year’s youth and young adult retreat was a lot of fun! We all learned what it means to be filled with God’s love and to share His love with those around us.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We visited the nursing home with our church members.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Michael’s Japanese friend and his wife invited us to have a picnic under the beautiful cherry blossom trees!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our English classes are growing!  We are teaching two classes right now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have several students and young adults who attend LIFE (Sunday Evening Bible Study and Worship) regularly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We were invited to the BBQ fellowship at one of the local churches that we partner with and we made many new friends!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We hosted three BBQ fellowships this summer and had more than 70 people total! We are so thankful Michael’s new friends and their families joined us for the first time!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We are thankful for our missionary partners (from IMB) and Japanese Christian friends. They are leading and helping with the ministries while we are in America.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

God is working in mighty ways in Japan!  Thank you so much for your continued prayers for our ministries in Japan!  We appreciate each of you so much!
