Day 9 Move to Teshio or Toyotomi?

Many of you may not know how we ended up in Teshio so want to explain how the Lord worked to show us where to go. During our training time, the missionaries we were training with went every week on Sunday afternoons to hold one S.S. outreach. That meant that every other week it was…

Day 8-Invitations and unique opportunities

Day 5 Remembering–FOODS

We can’t remember some of the early adjustments without talking about food! Strange food? No, just different food…in a land of almost 100% differences we tried as a family to say that things were different not strange–for they weren’t strange to those that lived here. ‘UUUyuck’ was never allowed to be uttered, although even we…

September Prayer and Praise Letter

Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. II Thessalonians 3:1 These verses make an appeal for prayer to a local church…
