Happy Birthday Erin Shavers!



It is Erin's birthday today! For some of you who never met Erin, let me introduce you to her. She is the gal pictured in the center holding the cake. We met Aaron about 7 months ago. She came to Okinawa specifically on a Cultural Visa to continue studying Karate here in Okinawa. But God had and still has other plans for her. Kayo used to work at Lawson's (like a 7/11 store in the states) and would talk to Erin almost daily. Kayo invited her to church, but she was not interested, been hurt many times in the past. She eventually came and got to know us. One afternoon she gave her heart to the Lord and God has not stopped working in her life. When the Bible College Semester began, she enrolled and has been growing leaps and bounds in the Lord. She is such a blessing to all of us here in Okinawa. Please continue to pray for Erin as she will continue studying with us in Okinawa, starting her second semester at the Bible College in January "07". God bless you all, Pastor Tommy
