Moving right along...

As the weather cools down slightly we are moving into a fall schedule of sorts. The english class that Susan taught before the summer and the GRIT team contintued through the summer is on a haitus but may come back soon with Joel teaching. It hangs on a church meeting Sunday to determine if anyone is interested in coming to a class by anyone other than Susan (they love her). The meeting Sunday will also determine if and when I start teaching a leadership/ discipleship class at church. There are several people interested but Pastor Kishimoto isn't convinced yet...

Ona new note, Joel and I have been running with Spencer, one of two new assistant english teachers, called an ALT, in Nagashima. He is a very nice guy from TN, and he's even a Baptist! He has been to chruch 2 or 3 times and has brought the other new ALT, Curtis, with him. We are talking about starting an english Bible study with Spencer and Curtis but they haven't adjusted to their new teaching schedules yet so we havn't found a good time.

Today is Thursday and therefore flyer handout day for the church here. It was a little warm but noone was bit by a dog so it was a good day! Tommorrow we have a Bible study at church in the morning and Saturday we have a prayer time in the afternoon. In between church activities I have sermon preparation, Japanese study, thinking about furlough next year, study for a seminary class I'm taking, working on the discipleship material for church, etc, ... whew, I'm tired thinking about it!
