It's almost here! On Monday morning I fly out for Tokyo, Japan (technically the community of Tachikawa on the west side of Tokyo), for five weeks of intensive one-on-one work teaching conversational English lessons with non-native English speakers for five weeks. We do this using the Bible.

I will be writing continual updates, as well as posting photos. Some photos will be here, but the full albums will appear on Facebook. I'll post the public links to those here.

Please be praying about this. It's been a tough go this year for the church in Tachikawa in the efforts to bring people into the program. Right now we have around 35 participants and our team can handle a maximum load of 60. However, it is more than apparent that we are set to see some really great works of God.

I will be posting here and also sending emails. There will probably be things in emails that I may not post here, so please leave a comment or email me if you would like to be included in the email list. If you have financially contributed, you are already included.

I will be returning, God willing, on July 29.

So, stay tuned, it's about to be a wild ride!

UPDATE: Somebody out there must have said the right kind of prayer, because as of today (6/22) there are now 52 readers.
