This week has been a lot of fun. We are starting to build relationships and make plans for the next few weeks. On Tuesday, the pastor from Odori (a church we've been visiting) had the two of us over for lunch. A missionary from Hungary and his Japanese wife came over and cooked Hungarian food. Four other Japanese ladies who wanted to learn came over too. We had a great time getting to know everyone, and it was pretty crazy to have conversations in three different languages. We've been talking some with a lady who some of the previous missionaries have built a relationship with and asked us to try to keep in contact with. We are trying to work it out to go with her to her son's baseball practice. We are also starting Japanese lessons next week with the daughter of one of the church members here. There are a lot of people praying for her to come to Christ too. Please pray that God will use us in her life to bring her closer. Pray that we'll be able to learn some of the language too. We've also really enjoyed spending time with the missionaries' kids, helping them some with schoolwork (algebra, mom...are you proud?) and just hanging out. Their mom asked us to do a Bible study with them while we are here. Pray that we'll encourage them and learn with them. Tomorrow, we go back to Odori for another kids' club event. Thanks for all of your prayers and encouragement.
