Ancient Work

Wow! Father is moving in this city, working things out in ways we could have never imagined. One of the core values of Igo is Ancient work. I believe that Father is everywhere all the time, working, and moving. It is really cool to see things work together to bring him glory.

An awesome thing has happened today. One of our ministry teams was just blown away by a great opportunity. They went to a university today we one of the professors knows the journeyman that was leading their group. How the journeyman and professor know each other is totally Fathers doing. The professor had a relationship with a former journeyman, but at first did not know the journeyman who went there today. The professor grew up in Arkansas. Her husband, who is a Christian also grew up in Arkansas. He was raised by a woman in the same church as the Journeyman who is here now. He and his wife went to visit in Arkansas and visited the woman who raised him. On her fridge was a card saying pray for, A who was in Japan. He asked the woman about A and she gave him A's contact information. When the couple returned to Japan, they took A out for dinner and he has been able to bring groups to her class. The group went to the University today and met two people who said they had gone to the University of North Texas. My friends were surprised about the connection to UNT because two of them currently attend and the other is starting in the fall. They asked the students about UNT and they were told that this university is a sister school of UNT. They were able to get in contact with with the entire group and are going to meet with them before they leave. This is such an awesome opportunity, because they can build relationships here and build them even more when they go to school. The girl who is starting in the fall has been struggling if UNT was the right place for her. She told me that she had been praying about it, and now meeting the 14 students reaffirms that she is going to the right place.

More ancient work, I have bought four bracelets that I had Japanese written on it. One is for Amy, and the others have be joyful, Psalm 46:10, and Psalm 27:1. I have been able to share with three different sets of people in less than a week! Father has totally used these bracelets.

A guy on the bus today was wearing a UCLA shirt and we had a California guy on my team. He was able to find common ground with this guy and share the good news with him.

The doors have also been opened for us to help at a Baptist church. The women we help during their English lesson are not believers and we have been able to share with them.

Please continue to pray that God will do more awesome things here in Tokyo!

Tomorrow I am going to the Tokyo Giants game. It is going to be super fun! I will post pictures as soon as I can. Later y'all!
