"Praise God for these four dear senior saints of Grace Church who obeyed the Lordโs command to be baptized upon their faith in Jesus this morning! He is building his church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. One of my favorite Sundays of all time."

Weโre home! Definitely missing the boys already but glad to be off the plane!!
These kids can dance!!
They pulled out all their best moves for the Independence Day ceremony today, and we loved celebrating with them!
We have just 2 days left until we leave, and we canโt even think about leaving these boysโฆ theyโre already asking when we have to leave and when weโll be back for another trip (according to Philip, that wonโt be too long from now๐).
But even though weโre sad to be leaving, we are thrilled to celebrate Independence Day with them tomorrow, and they are just as excited! We will be sure to share pictures with you of the celebration!
Starting with the same video as the other day since the volume didnโt work (and because itโs cute)!
We were in charge of planning activities for 2 hours with the boys day, and boy were we exhausted afterwards, but they loved it! Duck, duck, gooseโฆ the Fruit of the Spirit songโฆrelay racesโฆfollow the leaderโฆ soccerโฆvolleyball (you name it, we probably did it๐).
We also got to visit Boys and Girls Christian home tonight and see the wonderful children they are discipling there!
Our verse for the trip: 1 Timothy 4:12 - pray that we as a team would be the examples we are called to be in this verse and that our time here would encourage the boys and staff to do the same. โค๏ธ
We arrived around 8:00 this morning (around 9:30pm PA time) and got to enjoy a cup of tea, breakfast, and then a short nap! Words cannot describe the joy we felt as we pulled into the CFI driveway and all of the boys came running after us, waving and smiling wider than you can imagine. They blessed us with a beautiful welcome ceremony during their devotional time tonight: singing, dancing, and giving each of us a flower leiโฆ God is doing amazing work already! โค๏ธ
Weโre at the airport and will be ready to board at 8 so we can take off at 9!

The Grace Church family and our network of churches lost a very beloved missionary, Ralph Justiniano, last week. Here is a way you can celebrate his legacy and thank the Lord for providing such a devoted servant. Please be in prayer for the Justiniano family.
Veteran Missionary to Japan Passes Unexpectedly. You Can Help Continue His Legacy. - Encompass World Partners The words were from the mouth of Jim Elliot, missionary in the 1950s in South America, who died a martyr testifying to Jesus Christ. But those words also describe the life of Ralph Justiniano, missionary for almost 30 years in Japan, testifying to Jesus Christ.
