Our week started out by cutting Bethany's hair after 2 years of growth. We cut 11" off to send to "Locks of Love" for children cancer patients to make wigs for them.
I am so glad for Bethany to no longer have tangles. And doesn't she look so pretty.
After the Ai no Kesshin prayer meeting this week we went through some children's clothes that had been donated to give to some families.
Ai no Kesshin volunteers helping with the table we sponsored at the OBC Womens Bazaar. We sold loaves of bread, cookies, jello and and great japanese dessert called zen zai. We made over $100.
Rika did an excellent job translating and sharing very thoroghly all Ai no Kesshin can do for women and children in crisis. We were so thrilled to have this opportunity to speak to the "Okinawa Baptist Convention Women" . Naha Baptist hosted this event and there were around 200 japanese ladies attending. I was not the only American, there was one more, ha ha ha.
Finally, we are back to our Friday English classes with some new additions. All these ladies are so sweet and full of laughter and english. I just have to pull it out of them. Fun, Fun, Fun.
