Dear Family and Friends,
It is Tuesday morning and we are getting ready to head to Ishinomaki for another day of work. Yesterday everyone seemed a little weak and tired. One of our Avocado Team was not feeling well and we ended our day a bit early. Our house is ready to start mudding out (a job I'm personally dreading!). But we do have hope today! A team from Brazil will be joining us today and we are hoping they get us back on track. We should be close to finishing both houses before we are done (Thursday is our last day of work so we can travel back to Tokyo Friday).
Please pray for energy and encouragement for the team. We worked very hard the first week and then really didn't get to rest at all over the weekend and we are feeling somewhat exhausted now. Being done early yesterday did help. Pray also that God continues to protect my back (it has been very good so far) and keeps everyone safe.
We love you all.
Pastor Gary
