Our week

The internet has been super sketchy, so here is an update of everything from the past week or so:

-Our team went on a prayer retreat for the day at the beach and were so encouraged by what the Lord said to us during our time. God spoke to most of us through Isaiah, and to me specifically through Isaiah 45:14 -- They will plead with you saying: "Surely God is in you and there is no other, no god besides him."

-We started our Bible study on Paul's missionary journies in Acts. I'm super excited for the 6 of us to study the Word together. 

-We had a BBQ at the park, which didn't consist of hot dogs or hamburgers. We had vegetables, noodles, beef, and chicken cooking on 6 little grills. Tons of Guys Club members came to hang out for the day and we met lots of new people. I had an awesome conversation with Mami and Minami. They both said that the Bible has changed the way they think and they feel that they have more depth than their Japanese friends. 



-We celebrated Alex's birthday for several days. At one of the parties they dressed her in a kimono for a special 20th birthday celebration (tuning 20 is a big deal here). 



-We took a day off by the ocean to recharge and it was glorious. We all got to have a lot of time with the Lord that was much needed. I also saw the biggest spider that has ever existed.
