The past few days, we've been learning what real missionary life is like. Most of it is not preaching in front of large crowds or passing out tracts; most of it is living out the Christian life day by day in another country. There are still dishes to be washed, things to be repaired, kids to be taken care of, and friends to fellowship with. We have really enjoyed getting to know the missionary families and Japanese believers here. The churches really are families. A few fun things we've done in the past few days include helping with an English class at the youchien (kindergarten), celebrating the 4th of July with dinner and a movie, and being a part of a kids' Saturday morning program at a different church. Please pray for us as we continue to try to build relationships here. There are several great opportunities coming up in the next few weeks. Pray that God will show us where to invest our time. We're excited to see what's next.
