Japan Update

We're sorry that it has taken us so long to update the blog - our past few days have been full of activities! Tuesday and Wednesday we visited Honda Chapel for a shortened VBS after a morning of VBS with Pastor Han's church. We were with Pastor Han from 9-12 and then raced over to Honda Chapel for lunch and VBS from 3-5 (We didnt get home until 9:30 tonight!) The team led singing as the Go Fish Guys and split into different age groups to work with the children. About 50 kids showed up at Honda, and they have asked us to come again next year. We will also be working with Pastor Han at his church until Saturday. 70 children have signed up, and about 50 came today. A very large portion of these kids are not church members - the Lord has given us such a great opportunity to share His love with the children. On Monday we visited the daycare and spent a couple of hours playing with the children outside. I don't think there was a moment when there wasn't a child in our arms or on oour back! Please continue to pray for us, as we have been so busy. Prayer for strength and endurance, along with good health, would be so appreciated. Also, please pray for the children and mothers we have been (and will be) interacting with this week - that the Lord will use us, despite the language barrier, to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ! We can't wait to see what God has in store for us in the coming days! Thank you so much for your prayers! We hope to post some pictures tomorrow! -The Japan Team
