Since Sarang Festival on Saturday, our team has had the chance to rest and sightsee some of Japan. PTL!
On Monday we had a chance to "see" and experience true Japanese culture...NAKED PEOPLE!!!!
;) but no pictures of that of course. just our lovely faces in our yukatas
(note Iris and her content in being with J1...I mean...the Japan STEM teams.
She has been a true blessing to the teams thus far...PTL)
and then we went to New York...
...in Odaiba City...
and this how New York looks at night...
(yea thats the golden gate bridge too...)
Tuesday we went back to the city, this time to do ministry with another missionary (Missionary Bae and Missionary Elton)
Praying for Tokyo from 45th floor of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office.
Less than 0.05% of people from this view are Christian...
Bento (Do-shi-rak) break in Yoyogi Park!
We are money conservers...
Then we had open air "dance-off" and "skit-off" with Japanese college students that we met at the park!
They were practicing performance for their classes and clubs but God gave us an opportunity to see them perform and share some of our performances as well! PTL!
(Pictures to come once Iris uploads...*COUGH COUGH...)
And PTL for the weather! We were blessed with the most beautiful weather on the day of our festival and both days of our Tokyo outings have been withheld from rain! (when we were outdoors)
We were all ready with our umbrellas...but they ended up just being photoshoot props...
The final ministry opportunity of the day was prayer-walking around Shinjuku and hosting 5-minute English conversations alongside some friends from Texas!
God works through so many different people but all for the same Kingdom to come...PTL!!!
The day finished with a few more stops in Harajuku and Akhibara. Tomorrow comes our last day in Shinkoiwa Baptist Church before we head to Akabane Church on Thursday. Praise God for all the ministry opportunities we have had in Shinkoiwa and please pray for our team as we transition into ministry with Akabane Church.
To all our supporters and fellow STEMmers...FTF FTW PTL SDG...ETB (surprise!)
