August 1: Sunday Services

It was the day after we came back from VBS. We were exhausted from the camp but we successfully sat through the two services that we attended to with out falling asleep.  Also we had to “dress up” and that was really unfortunate for me because the collared shirt made me sweat even more.  
I gave my testimony in the first service and I was nervous, sweaty, and my legs were shaking when I was up in the front. 


Jen also gave her testimony in the second service and Miyou translated. 


Jen and  I were both approached by people from the church after the services and we were able hear the nice feedback from them. We also saw some of the kids that went to Yamanakako with us and the team and kids were both excited to see each other.

We also saw the Baker family from Peninsula, Emi’s twin sister, Aya and her mom, and Yuki Fujiyama who used to go to the Nichigo services at Peninsula. Also, Jenny was able to see her uncle, Joanne saw her friend, and we also saw many people that we saw from previous mission trips as well. 


We also got to join sunday school for the kids between the two services. We were also able to see people that are going to join us for FMTC. After the second morning services we ate lunch with the people at the church. And we had this! ↓↓↓↓

It was pretty darn good like all the other meals.


We remained in the church for the afternoon and had meetings. We also prepared for the FMTC camp.
the schedule looks exciting but we are all worried about the heat.

After the whole day joining services and sunday school, we were able to see the culture difference between the Koganei church and Peninsula. Eventhough things were a little different at the church, I was able to see the unchanging love of God working in Japan
