Dear Friends and Family,
We have completed our first week in Ishinomaki. Friday we were blessed by the addition of a team of ten from California (not our Avocado Team, but Avocados none the less). We got so much done! The walls are nearly complete and most of the flooring is ripped out. Next week we will be mudding out the gunk that was under the house. I'm not looking forward to that job because it will mean a lot of stooping over and that will be hard on the back.
Today (Saturday) we will be heading back to Ishinomaki to set up for a Christian Concert for the neighborhood this morning. The concert starts at 1:30 PM and will be followed by social time with flavored shaved ice. After all is done, our team will also do the clean up. We are really trying to build good relationships and share Christ with hurting people.
Tomorrow (Sunday), we will go to church and then have a tour of the disaster area in several other towns along the coast. I think everyone is ready for a bit of rest.
Please keep us in your prayers.
Love you all.
Pastor Gary
