Feeling accomplished!

So, the last two days were pretty busy. By the way, Happy Fourth of July! Anyway, I'll start with Friday. Dustin, Hunter, and myself literally passed out over 750 HOPE tracks throughout the city of Higashikoganei! It was awesome to know that 750 households have the chance to hear the Gospel and to receive the Gospel. Please pray for their reponse to this awesome mesage that we're trying to convey to these Japanese in our community. Afterward, we went to Hosei University and that was a bit of a disappointing visit. We found out that there is an English club, and we aren't allowed to join any clubs on campus, but we're allowed to be involved. So, we inquired more about it thinking it'd be a great opportunity, but instead we were directed to the lady in charge of it, and she asked us to leave kindly, and that we'd only be welcome to that club if we were invited. So, we weren't technically kicked off our campus, however next time we go on from now on, our focus needs to be on what it was before, which was meeting people at lunch in the cafeteria. So, we talked it over with our missionary at our station and he advised us to continue to go to Hosei, yet just keep a low profile- even more so than normal. So, please pray for divine appointments at Hosei University as the summer winds down. We closed the day with Free Five Minute English Practice, but no one came to talk with us. Saturday was our park evangelism day and we spent the first half of our day at Nogawa Park on the south side of town, but there wasn't a crowd at all to start conversations with. It was kind of disappointing, but Jeff Burns (our missionary), recommended other spots in the park to go to, so we can meet Japanese. So, please pray for that ministry as we attempt again next Saturday afternoon. An important prayer request that I am asking you to keep in mind, even more so than the other ones is tomorrow afternoon, after church, I will be meeting with S-san. Please pray that our Bible Study will go well tomorrow, and that through this meeting S-san will want to become a Christian. This is that potential new contact that I alluded to in my previous blog that I met at Free Five Minute English on Thursday. PRAY, PRAY PRAY! IT'S NEEDED FOR TOMORROW- SPECIFICALLY 3:00 TOMORROW AFTERNOON- FOR THOSE OF YOU AT HOME, THAT WILL BE 2 AM YOUR TIME (EAST COAST).

One other note. I don't know the details, but from word of mouth, 4 new brothers and sisters in Christ, have been added to our family as of yesterday! Praise the Lord for Him using us in this awesome opportunity this summer!
