Wednesday night, Joanna and I were invited to the Marine Corps Ball, commemorating the 230th Anniversary of the United States Marines. It was a wonderful night. We were the guests of Derek and Souki Forbes (bottom left) and Larry and Mona Torrez (bottom right). The ceremony began with the Marines stating thier long and proud legacy. A guest high ranking officer gave a moving speech on their history, followed by music, and the ceremony of the cutting of the cake. At the end of the ceremony, dinner was served, followed by a dance. It was a real blessing to be there and be a part with our honorable service men and women. Please click on the photos for larger pictures.
My family and I moved to Okinawa Japan after Pastoring in Corona, California for 14 years. We started the church in 1991, and have a wonderful church family back in Corona. The reason for coming to Okinawa, is that we have a vision to start a Calvary Chapel Bible College and prepare men and women for ministry all over the World. We feel totally blessed to be overseas in Japan, and believe that this is just the beginning of what God wants to do here on the Island.
