Post subject:  Mission Trip to Japan
Hello All,

I wanted to let you know sooner rather than later, because I may not have time to get to it if I don't do this now. In about a week and a half, my two younger brothers and I will be travelling on a mission trip to Japan. Our flight is July 11th, and we don't get back home until July 23rd. It looks like I'll be able to take my laptop with, but I don't know about wifi or even if I want to have the extra weight (I'll already have my fiddle to carry around!).

If you could pray for a safe trip, that would be great! We will be working with two churches over there, in Yokohama and Saitama. according to the CIA World Factbook, only about 2% of the population of Japan are professing Christians. My prayer is that we change that.

Don't irreparably destroy the place while I'm away, who knows, I may be watching you! :cool:

さようなら! :salute:

Also, please pray for the language barrier. Neither I or my brothers speak Japanese very well, and only five people out of our team of about 20 speak it fluently, so it will be interesting! To say the least...

Alright, have a safe trip and I pray you and the others will have ample opportunities to be a witness! :D

Thanks, everybody for the prayers!

@Airianna, where did you live there? We'll be visiting Yokohama, Tokyo, and Saitama.

I landed in Tokyo and spent some time there, but we lived in Okinawa, a little Island off the coast.

Really? You never knew that? That is odd. :)

I've only been here for one whole day, but I love it here! Can't believe I only have ten whole days to look around. I'm definitely going to apply to be on the team that returns next year... When I get back from Japan I will definitely have a "debrief" of sorts on both my website and my blog with pictures from the trip.

I also didn't know you lived in Japan, Airi.

Hmmm.... that's weird, I thought everyone knew that. Guess not.

Here is the overview of what we did, it is a little broad, but hopefully still informative. http://white-horseinnblog.blogspot.com/ ... rview.html. I used to know how to embed links in words, but I forgot...
