Two weeks ago I started this Bible study with four women who aren't believers and two women from my church. God is so gracious to let me be apart of His ministry. I am truly in a state of dependence upon Him. I can't speak the language well enough to completely lead, except to say, "Junko-san could you read question 5. What do you think?" Several of the women are able to interpret for me. What a blessing! (Below, you see Jon, who plays with the 6 kids during the study.)
We are studying a book called, "Introducing Jesus." The first week we talked about Jesus being the bread of life. This led to a discussion about what we look to in the hard times of life. Several of my friends said that they looked to their dead ancestors to take care of them. Wow! I was able to share with them about how God never changing is a huge comfort to me. Please keep these ladies in your prayers, and pray that God would lead me as I lead these women.
