BAM!!!

So, today was a pretty sweet day! We headed over to Higashikoganei and distributed over 400 Gospel of John's. Please pray that those that receive this pamphlet, will be affected in a way that will lead them to salvation or atleast closer to the Lord!

Afterward, we had lunch at our normal spot (gioza)--here's the crazy thing though. God placed in our team's path a divine appointment. At the end of lunch, we were all discouraged by the rain today. It had been raining the whole time we had been distributing, and it was discouraging us from wanting to do Free Five Minute English Practice. So, we waited in the restaurant a while, and all of a sudden, this older man, Ichiro (YES!, like the Seattle Mariner from Japan), taps me on the shoulder and asks why us (white people) are here. After sharing with him and presenting the Gospel crystal clear to him, all of a sudden this other white guy from the otherside of the restaurant taps Katrina on the shoulder and says that what we were doing was awesome! He says that we were representing our Savior in an amazing way! He must've been listening to our conversation with Ichiro the whole time. It turns out that he is a missions kid that has lived in Tokyo his whole life and leads a youth group around the corner at our station! This was first time we met this guy! He then while I was talking to Ichiro started talking to Ichiro in perfect Japanese! This was amazing to watch this youth pastor share the Gospel with Ichiro and Ichiro listening so intently. We exchanged contact information and if he is available, he wants to come to church on Sunday at Koganei Park. He is interested in Gospel singing and wants to hear the worship on Sunday. Please pray for his salvation. This guy is definitely seeking a purpose in his life, because he had told me that he had no purpose in life. Please pray for Ichiro!

Afterward, we headed to Musashi-sakai to do Free Five Minute English Practice. We probably talked to about 20+ people, many of which we were able to share the Gospel with. Please pray for those that heard, for their salvation.

Thanks for reading guys.
