Thanks for all your prayers for us and for Japan. Please be praying with us for our Kids Gospel Week that is starting this morning. We have about 60 kids and about 30 helpers signed up! Most of those 60 kids don't yet know Jesus. Several are kids of our gospel choir members; several others are from our "Mom and Kids Club" that reaches out to the community in a great way. Last year's Kids Gospel was a great time of fun for the kids while they sang, played, and heard great messages about the love of Jesus.
We are very tired, recovering from/fighting sickness, and in need of strength and grace from God. Please pray. Please pray also for preparations for a trip to northern Japan that Tom will be leading in a couple of weeks. We are hoping and praying for the LORD to open doors for gospel workshops during that time as well as doing clean-up, cooking for a big group, etc. I'll be holding down the fort with the kids.
