Its not raining anymore!! Praise Jesus!! Well, everything is going so well here. I (Marti) will be giving my testimony tonight at the prayer meeting. I am excited! Today was the first day that we actually go to explore Sakata a little. We went on a nice walk, got some grocereys and clothes. I got a bag, it is so cool, really random actually, but I like it. Our friends went out of town for two days so we had to explore by ourselves but it was still a lot of fun. We also got to sleep in for the first time. We slept until 11:00. It was so nice.
My night class went so well! I had 12 students, I think the advanced and beginnning classes had about 5 each. It was a lot of fun. I was totally encouraged by my class and there willingness to put up with my teaching.
This church is such a blessing, I wish you all could come and see it. Walking into it, would put you on a spiritual high! Last night, I stayed up pretty late talking to Naoto, this guy who lives at the church, he gave me a verse that is very nice so I thought that I would share it with you. It is Romans 8:28 and it says,
-And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. -
Isn:t that verse nice. (Sorry, i don:t know where the apostrohe or quotes are) We know that God is working for us because we love him and we have come here for his purpsoe.
Thanks, and have a great day! Actually where you all are it is midnight! Have a good night!
