July/August Newsletter

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

I hope you are all well. It has been a good summer, full of different events and activities and overall good rest. So much to be thankful for, praise the Lord.

I was able to return home for a couple weeks to visit family and friends. My main intention for returning was to visit my dear brother Micah Stout who is battling cancer. Please pray for his healing if it be His will.

Also this summer during the weekend of August 13-16 we played a total of four concerts; three at local establishments where we gave out tract-like postcards which stated our group history having started as a jam session at the church in addition to the wonderful Word of John 3:16. Our final fourth concert took place at Daichi Church after the service where we read Psalms in between songs. Those who attended told us they were indeed edified and refreshed by the reading of scriptures during our concert.

Praise the Lord for the edification of the body of Christ! Praise the Lord for the good relationships which were established during these times! Also, praise the Lord for our two non-believing friends Yuh Nagai and Kouji Hirai who played guitar and keyboards with us and heard the Gospel message in addition to witnessing the love of God demonstrated by the body of Christ! Of course, we pray they may one day be saved.

Our classes at the Hiroshima International University on Mondays will resume in October since they have an extended break.

Our Tuesday Praise and Worship time at Daichi church will resume Sept. 8th.

Our Thursday English Bible study will resume Sept. 10th.

Please pray as the Spirit leads.

Thanks for reading and may we continue to keep our eyes on Jesus in whatever we are doing!

In Jesus,
Tyler
