Lunch

I was able to meet up with one of my good friends. Yasutomo was born and raised here in Okinawa and is now getting ready to graduated from college in Tokyo and will move back here to Okinawa in a couple of weeks. We went down to the famous tondou ramen-ya, as always it was super good!

Baseball

Last Saturday I was able to take some of the students out to see one of Rob's baseball games. He plays company league baseball for the Aniya company. He is the only tall white guy on the team (and I think the only one in the league too).

CCBCJapan website

One of my projects for the semester is to work on the school website (our current one is VERY old, and we can no longer edit it). So I thought I would share with you guys some of our teachers. There are more of us teachers, but I have been unable to take pictures due to rainy weather. Please keep all of us in your prayers and we teach God's word!

A mind bobbling month

We have finished our first month of the semester, and boy did it go fast! So many new things have happened. For one (and I believe it will explain the title) is that the Lord has given me the opportunity to lead the semester...it was super scary when I was told that I will be leading the helm, but,mat the same time a great blessing. I have been given the chance to lead this group of people, I pray that the Lord will continue to work in in me and through so that his glory will be shown.

Sakura

 The Lord is so good! O our way up to Nago it started to pour and I was starting of other things to do with the students, but by the time that we made it to Nago the rains ceased and gave us an opportunity to see the beautiful Okinawain style of cherry blossoms (mainland is a white/light pink). I love this time of year and can't wait to see more trees in blossom.

The students

 Here are the new students to the school....one kind of got lost on the way to the church so we had to leave him (he was found though...praise the Lord). We took a trip to Nago to see the cherry blossoms.

Ginowan youth group

On Sunday after service the youth group had okonomiyaki (look it up in google....you'll drool wishing you had some) and a game day. All the new Bible College students were able to participate in the fun!
