Our New Translator

Totally blessed to have Mike Tamashiro translate for the first time here at CCGINOWAN. He did a great job! To God be all the Glory!

A Real Trooper!

I got Pastor Tom Hallman "Landboarding" here in Okinawa and he kind of fractured his wrist. It was on the first day of his missions trip with us here in Okinawa. He actually tore ligaments in his wrist. Again, he is a good trooper, he hardly complained the whole trip. Now he is in a cast. Stand Up Landboarding did not conquer Tom, he conquered it. God bless you my bro, we had a blast in Asia.

Heading back Home!

Yippee! Time to go back to Okinawa. We miss our family back in Japan. God has great things in store for us all. To God be the Glory!

Heightened Security at Incheon Airport

Because of the bombings at the Boston Marathon, security has been heightened. This is the longest line that I have ever been in here in Incheon. Usually you go right through. Terrible times we do live in. Jesus come back soon.

Saying Goodbye to the Virginia Group

It Made it!

We transferred the coffee grinder from Okinawa to CCBCTOKYO. This grinder is a blessing! Tom Cotton and Tamiko found it the other day at a recycle shop.
