This week…

1. I had my first full week of full-time language classes. Lots of review for me, since it’s the same stuff I took in January, but it’s moving much more quickly. I’m trying to take advantage of the ease of the current workload and memorize the words I missed the first time. And hopefully get ahead and stay ahead. Soon enough we’ll be into uncharted territory.

2. Things at the church have been chaotic, as renovations were being done, boxes and furniture were being moved in and out, and lots of stuff went out with the trash — all part of pastoral transition time.

3. Fellow missionary Zach came to Nagoya. I haven’t seen him yet but we’ve made plans to meet up and see some sights together tomorrow. Expect to read about the fun here.

If you’re a pray-er, please pray for…

1. My language studies

2. Pastor Saoshiro and family — this coming Sunday is their last one here.

3. Pastor Uchiyama and family — the new pastor, who begins next week.

Thanks! That’s a wrap for this week!
