Alecia successfully finished her second year of college and is back in Japan teaching English to Japanese children from ages two to ten. Thank-you for praying her through all her papers and exams. In celebration we decided to do a photo shoot for her. It's a Japanese tradition to dress a young woman in a kimono at age twenty, when she becomes an "adult". We thought we better take advantage of the chance before her 21st birthday! We have a friend in our area who owns many kimonos, and she helped create our Japanese princess as you see her in this picture.
Aaron has a very exciting month ahead. First, he'll be finishing off his junior year at Multnomah Bible College, and his fiancee' Amanda graduates on May 16th. Then the two of them head to Singapore to finish off final preparations for their June 7th wedding. Amanda's dad, Henry Ng, is the senior pastor at People's Community Church, where the wedding ceremony will be held. With Gerald giving the message, and Henry officiating in the ceremony, it is going to be a family thing.
For all the family and friends in the Portland area, there will be a wedding reception on August 16th. We know that many of you are unable to attend, but we appreciate your prayers for God's blessing on Aaron and Amanda as they start a new life together. Aaron has one more year of school which qualifies them to live in the married student apartments at Multnomah Bible College. They are seeking the Lord about doing ministry in China or some other limited access country in the future.
