We are back!

September 7, 2011

Wow, we have been away from the blog world for a while!  Sorry we haven’t updated our blog for a while.  August was such a busy month.  We hope you all had a wonderful summer!

We want to thank you all for your prayers and encouragement as we grieved the loss of Yu’s grandmother.  We miss her so much but we also praise God that she is in heaven right now. We want more Japanese people to have a personal relationship with God so that they can have an eternal life.

In the middle of August, we went to Gold Coast,Australia for our dear friend’s wedding.  The bride grew up with Yu in Japan so she is just like her little sister.  What a blessing it was to celebrate with her and her family!

Even though she is a lot younger, they did almost everything together!  We were not sure if we could make it until the last minute but I was SO thankful that we got to go and Luke had a chance to meet his family in Australia!

We can’t believe it’s already September!  After a short summer break, we started our ministries again.  We are going to focus on disaster relief effort this fall, but we are also praying that our student ministry will grow as well.  We are going to start teaching English at church and we hope many kids and students will come from the community.

We pray God will continue to use us in amazing ways.  Thank you for keeping us in your prayers!  We are here thanks to God’s wonderful plans and YOUR prayers and support!!!  We are honored to partner with you as we work for His glory!
