Back to School

Officially the summer has ended here in Japan with the school starting back again for the second trimester on Sep. 1.  Nicki and Noah went back to their schools and reacquainted with their school friends again.  Right now Nicki is besides me doing his math homework.  Noah is working with Marcia on his English letters, and Nathan is just hanging out.

Nicki's school asked Marcia and I to come teach about children's life in America so we will have the opportunity to do that on the 19th of September.  We hope this will go well that we can do it well on this.  We will have about 60 first graders to share things with.

We had church Sports festival on 9/2.  Our friend Mrs Sakai and her kids, Ryota and Shodai came to join.  Her husband and she are interested in sending their kids to Sunday school.  They have been taking English classes at the church and came to JJ5D this summer.  Marcia is doing Creative memories with her and our boys are the same age as her kids.  (Okay, totally random order of list here... did it make sense?)  We have been praying that they will come to know the Lord.  Please pray for them.

I will be teaching a Hermeneutics class for the upcoming Expositors' Seminar Series at our training center.  I am trying to put together a note without writing a full brown book.  So please pray for that as well.  

Well... time to listen to Nicki read Japanese book.  We'd love to hear from you all!
