Sayonara Party

Wow! We've been back in Canada for over 2 months and I haven't updated our blog. We had a great summer catching up with friends and family, but more about that later.

Special Friends!

I wanted to tell you about the awesome goodbye party we had just before leaving Harumi, Tokyo in June. About 50 people came to help us celebrate a great year and to say goodbye. We shared stories from our experiences and heard from them how much we meant to them. What an encouragement! One of my colleagues who was also there looked around and said "you meet with all these people?" Yes! God has given us a fantastic group of people to meet with and share our faith. Two more women told me that they wanted to join an evangelistic Bible study and they are now studying with our colleague Don Love. I have the best job ever - meeting with people and sharing God's love!

Sorry there aren't any pictures of Doug. He really was there!
