July 23rd
Saturday
I have only a few minutes access so here it goes. Saturday I played 3 games with the Japanese. The first game went 13 innings. The second and third went the normal lengths. There was allot of fellowshiping. Thw weather was 75 degrees. Nice winter time. The food is wonderful! We did kereoke with the Japanese what an experience.
Sunday
Played 2 games again with the Japanese. During lunch we tried something different. We had a devoion with many members of the Japanese and their families. Sharing about our families and getting to know each other better. This is such a major change with expectations of Global Baseball at this complex. One year ago we could not share anything about our faith and Jesus. Today we had a devotion and sang priase songs in both languages. It is amazing to watch how the spirit is moving.
Sunday evening we went to the churches praise service. Over 1100 people attended. 20 may have given their life to Christ. I just cannot explain how the sprit moves through me during the services at this church. Tears are in my eyes during the whole service. The love of the people just cannot be explained.
Monday we played soccer with the church people and pastor for 3 hours. Thene went to the english speaking school and had dinner. We shared our experiences and their 2 out of 10 people that were believers. Since they wanted to practice english the would ask questions and we would respond by telling them why we were there and shared the gospel with them. 4 gave their lives to Christ.
Tomorrow I shop for all the wood, bicka and stuff for the karate team that is coming . I also hope to play some basket ball with the local pastors in the downtown park. We are also doin the movie facing the giants in a small court yard outside the church tomorrow nigt inviting youth to come.
