The Newest Members of Our Team!

Meet the Shaos, who are currently living in Fukuoka, in western Japan. They are working among Mandarin speaking people of the city to plant a Chinese Alliance church in the city. If you look at a map of Japan, you'll notice they're about as far from us as Minneapolis is from Toronto! But, they're part of our team in Japan now, and the Chinese Alliance churches of Canada are providing support for them, both financial and on site equipping/mentoring, for which we are grateful. When we meet as a team with the Shaos, we'll be using Japanese, because it is the language we have in common. We're looking forward to it.

Back in Japan, Back in Urban Tower!

We arrived in Japan will all our luggage, including $5,000 worth of insulin pump supplies for Megan. We always sigh with relief at the baggage carousel!

We're thankful for an apartment that we could lease the morning after arriving in Tokyo. It's almost identical to our previous apartment, except for one closet and a significantly lower rent. So, once again we're in the centre of everything in Harumi, and accessible to nearby areas such as Toyosu, Tsukishima and Kachidoki. Can we see Praise Time groups meeting in each of those locations this term?
