A group of ladies from Living Hope Baptist Church, Bowling Green, Kentucky joined us at Shinjuku one day . Here they are engaged in 5 Minute English at the train station; the busiest one in Tokyo. On other days they were involved in park ministry and at a women's center doing scrapbooking and American style cooking. The last day, the Japanese ladies prepared food for them; a neat cultural exchange.
Martin is engaged in 5 Minute English with a man that was on his way to watch a horse race. When he learned that Martin was from Kentucky, well, you can guess what he wanted to talk about. The man has in his hand a Hope tract that Martin had shared with him.
Park ministry is lots of fun... Ever try to follow directions for making balloon animals?
Annette is showing her group from Kansas where to twist and turn the balloon.
The children really enjoyed the volunteers. These balloons open doors of communication, not just to the children, but the parents as well. It was a great day.
Here we all are gathered at the park for our weekly Sunday morning worship. The states of Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, California, and Kentucky were represented well.
A very busy week!!
