End of the fiscal year/ New Season coming

This evening we finished up our 2008-2009 fiscal year of English class.

For our beginners English class we have seen Hawn, Onyu, and Junsoo regularly. Also, until they moved recently, A-shun and her brother Chan had been attending. In addition, Natsuko and her friend Kayoko had been attending for the past couple months. Unfortunately, Kayoko has not continued, but Natsuko has been consistent and today she brought her friends Mayuho and Hikari! Praise the Lord for these little ones! It is a miracle from the Lord that Natsuko has been able to come, since it was about 6 years ago when pastor Lee first invited Natsuko's mother and her family to church! Well, here we are six years later and God is moving! We hope and pray that this the start of something for His glory. We hope to share the love of the Lord and that eventually the Lord will reveal Himself to them! Please pray with us!

For our English Bible study our core group has been Junsoo, Chan, Hawn, and Beth. But, as I mentioned before, Chan has moved. A Daichi member named Takaharu Yamamoto has come off and on to audit the course. He just likes hanging out. What a nice guy he is! We have also been blessed with students who are new to Daichi church such as Mr. Iimura and Ms. Yamada. So far they have come fairly regularly and heard the Gospel message, also they have expressed interest in returning to the class next month. Please pray that they would continue coming.

We will resume class on 4/16 after a month long break. May His will be done!

Our next Jamming for Jesus will be May 3rd. Please pray as the Spirit leads.

One final note, last Saturday we met to hand out tracts in downtown Hiroshima. The Lord seems to be moving us to become more active in the city. While it is true that 99% of tracts end up on the garbage, we know that 1% is worth every effort! So, we are praying that the Lord would lead us in our desire to reach the people by simply giving tracts and being available. Please pray that this new season of reaching out would be fruitful.
