Kagoshima Prefecture Blowgun Competition!

I participated in the prefectural sports blowgun competition this weekend. I joined the local club in the spring of this year and have been really enjoying it. I have a competitive nature : )
At the competition this weekend I placed 4th overall in the individual contest, and our club placed 2nd in the team contest. Not bad for a club that is only about 2 years old!

The thing I really like about this kind of evert is that it gives me several hours traveling and time at the event to continue developing relationships and getting to know new people. Someone always asks a question about Christianity leading to a discussion and an opportunity to share Christ. This time the question was , "What is the difference between Christian and Protestant." This was soon followed by, " Jehovah's Witnesses have been to my house, so that's different?" Ummm, yes.

Days like this highlight how little Japanese know about Christianity. But, days like this also give a handful of people something to think about and the Holy Spirit something to work with in their lives. It is always sad to see how far people are from the True and Living God, but it is exciting to know that some people are still searching for Him!
