K and Mr. Y
Dear Praying Friends:
Four weeks ago this past Thursday, Mrs. Y trusted Christ. That same day she shared her decision with her husband who accepted Christ. Since then she has been praying with her husband and her children. On Thursday evening of this week, in the ofuro (Japanese bath) she explained to K, her seven year old son, what it meant to be a Christian. K indicated he wanted to accept Christ. On Friday, Mrs. S and Mrs. M talked to him again with his mother and he was very firm in his decision, saying he accepted Christ and wanted to be baptized. Afterwards as they prayed together, he prayed that his dad would be able to be off work on Sunday so they could be baptized together. Will you pray fervently today that Mr. Y will be off work tomorrow and can be baptized with his son.
It will be cold in the ocean so pray that Mr. S, K, and hopefully Mr. Y as well as those doing the baptizing. will not catch cold. The church will meet for worship at the beach restaurant and have lunch (raw fish
) together afterwards.. Pray for a wonderful time of fellowship and worship and growth for the church.
On Monday, Mrs. Sh and E plan to visit Mrs. Ki to present the gospel to her. Mrs. Ki has four children and has sent them to Sunday school several times in the past. Pray with us that the door will open for the visit and that Mrs. Sh will have the privilege of leading this lady to Christ. Pray for her children and husband to be saved also.
We count on your prayers for the lost. Please pray for each person. All are precious in His sight. We also count on your prayers for the new Christians that each will become a joyfilled multiplying disciple!!
