Thank you for your prayers for our family during the Christmas Season. We had some unusual ministry opportunities! One chance was to minister with our kids at the Ladies Gym Christmas Party, and another was up in the mountains at Megumi Chalet where we passed out hundreds of tracts to people who came to see the beautiful Christmas lights and listen to the Singing Christmas Tree. We were able to have some significant conversations with people, as they were curious about Christmas and its meaning.
On Wednesday, January 16th, we will be having the ladies from the Gospel Choir in for supper, our first time to have them in our home. The group of 8 ladies are all members of the ladies' gym where I work out. We meet at the gym for gospel choir once or twice a month. We'd appreciate prayer for our conversation and testimony as we have supper together. At our big concert on December 15th, they became more open and now we are looking forward to sharing with them what Jesus means to us.
We enjoyed some great family time with Aaron and Alecia home from college. Being Aaron's last time before the big wedding in June, we treasured this time as a foursome. And we were able to be a part of the wedding plans, gathering childhood pictures for the power point. Gerald has been asked to speak during the ceremony and Amanda's dad will officiate. He is the senior pastor of a big church in Singapore where the wedding will be held.
Gerald taught his first class in Integrative Theology to five young adults last Thursday. It was a challenge because it was in Japanese, but a great blessing. Pray for him as he will be teaching for the next seven weeks. We pray that the class will really impact these young people in their personal walk with the Lord, and in their equipping for ministry.
Things are back in full swing again and we are excited about what God has in store for us in this new year.
Thank you again for praying,
Debbie (& Gerald) May
