Annabella's Birthday

This past Saturday we had a belated birthday party for Annabella. All but one of the ladies from my Bible study came. We had about twenty people in our little cabin! What a special time it was. Here are a few pictures capturing our time....


This group picture shows you some of our closest Japanese friends (but unfortunately doesn't include 4 of our Japanese friends from Church who left the party early). We were very blessed that two of the husbands were able to come. Jon has started having spiritual conversations with both of them. Please join us in prayer for our friends.


Everyone brought food to share for dinner...Yum!


Annabella chose a whale cake this year. The cake was a hit!


Annabella loved eating her cake and ice cream


Our friend were very sweet to give gifts to Annabella

One of our friends, Manabu-san, played "Amazing Grace" on a traditional Japanese instrument. I got chills and began to pray that one day our friends would truly know God's amazing grace.
