I've been lazy, i know, im sorry

Hey all, I'm so sorry that I have not written much. Life out here has been busy and a blast all at the same time, so woot :D





we were able to check out a cave and what not. A cave
where some of the Okinawains were able to hide during
the war.



thats my old high school history book... really no relevance.


Pastor Tom is doing such a great job studying his Japanese, keep up the
amazing work buddy.


ministry with the kids on camp foster while the parents

A well deserved break from all the craziness that goes about the school.

the love that we Christians have for the Japanese.


Keep the students in prayer as we are reaching the halfway point of the semester, that they may stay focused on Christ and what He has called them out here for.

what they think of me

This is what the students see me as...

The students

To save time describing who they are and what not, I have put up pictures with their names on them. Enjoy.

In preparation for the incoming semester Pastor Tim, me and some other dudes went to the Onsen (Japanese bath house) and it was amazing. All the students are just about here now except for one guy who will be here on Tuesday. Keep these kids in your prayers, and I'll have some pictures of them up in a bit.

made it

hey, im here now thnx for the prayers.

WOOT!!

So...life is pretty much amazing right now, the Lord has completely funded my trip to Okinawa!! I can't believe it, I'm at a total loss of words, I can't explain it, sorry...I'm just way to excited to think :D

Ministry, School and Junk

First off, sorry Aaron for not keeping this up to date.

Since I am staying home longer than I normally have been the Lord has allowed me to be involved with my church once again. I get to hang out with fourth through sixth graders every Tuesday and on every other Sunday I get to work on the computer during worship and the teaching of the word, its not like what it used to be before, but its a totally new kind of blessing the Lord has given. And I am able to share with my English Professor through my assignments whenever the opportunity comes up.

School is a major drag, i know no one except for my brother who i see every once in awhile, the school reeks of cigarette smoke and is filled with hardened and foul hearts that only seek wickedness. Its a real sad thing to see. On a lighter note, school is easier than i anticipated, and for some reason it reminds me of high school where I did not need to put forth any effort at all. Oh!! for those of you who do not know...I am taking a weight lifting class, I hate this one the most because the weight room stinks and the fact that i had to take it (dang you one credit!!). Yea so I think I am getting a bit in shape.

Life in general is amazing; every day is totally different and unexpected, for example last month i think it was i saw this dude at a bus stop walking his iguana. I had to slow down and have some lols. Then the next week i saw that same dude taking a leak, that was gross. Work is more of ministry than work, its sweet being able to chat with all the different type of people that come from all different walks with the Lord. And now I'm making a training video for future employees in my department, its so funny watching myself act like I know what I'm doing. Two weeks ago my best bud Eder came down to cali for a week and i was able to hang out with him for a day at dinsey land...oh and jimmy from philly came out too, how can i forget.

I don't know how many of you guys know but I am for sure going to Okinawa in January to intern at the Bible College, I so can't wait!
