The Hawaiian group of 19 new volunteers showed up today! So that has been very exciting and I personally have really enjoyed getting to know them! It has been a crazy day, getting them settled in along with reading and getting everything done that needs to get done. I am very excited about the Hawaiian barbecue Friday, and we are starting a weekly children's program tomorrow afternoon. I will be missing it because I have a day planned with Yuko and to visit her at her Kumon Japanese school. The other two, Austin and Amber, however will be there and I plan on joining it next week. Tomorrow I will also be training two of Chad and Jennifer's children--I am really excited that I can use my gifts and past training to help them live a fit and healthy life.

Today was also really fun because I was able to attend Curves again with Yuko and we had some very good conversation as always-- she always brings me gifts. It is so nice--she is very, very kind. Today she bought me some very special pork and made me a sandwich. She is becoming a dear friend and she is very interested in the story of Luke-- we read through two lessons today. She is very excited about it. I am really excited to see where God takes her. Ino is also becoming very intrigued in the readings-- after we finished our section, we had a discussion on the entirety of the Bible and the many writers etc. It was very awesome. I am shocked at where the Spirit is taking us!

The three of us also enjoyed a lovely dinner with one of Amber's readers, Kaori (Amber still can't say her name write :-P ). We made curry and they also prepared a delicious salad-- it is so nice to get some greens in me again! The last bit of the day finished with another trip to the onsen with some of the Hawaiians: Clayton, Shelly, and Ro. They were a lot of fun, and yet again we are very relaxed-- speaking of-- since I am so relaxed I am going to hit the sack. Especially since I am the only one awake and moving around in this dark apartment. I still don't know if I'm totally used to the sun coming up at like 4 in the morning here.. Haha. Well good night world! Until next time, as they say here, "Oyasominosai!" (Good night/have a good night's rest).

Ephesians 1:15-23


15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. 17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
