My friends have arrived!

Sorry for not updating for some days. I have been very busy because a team of my friends from Illinois have arrived for a short term mission trip. It has been awesome to help my friends around Tokyo and minister together. It is a little weird being here and soon they will leave and return to the States.

This week has been awesome but tiring so far. Monday we all went to a university to teach English and share the gospel in some English classes. It was so awesome to get to meet all of the students and get to know them. Tuesday some of us went to Todai and some went back to the other university. Todai was pretty cool because we had a bible study where I led worship and Pastor Bruce spoke a very interesting message on what our lives should be founded on. After the bible study we had lunch and then we were off to try and meet people around the campus. I met a really cool guy and my friend David got to meet and share the gospel with some people. I also had the opportunity to race David and Daniel in some street races. I whooped them of course! haha.

Yesterday we were at Waseda and we first had lunch in the cafeteria and then went to the lounge to try to reach out to students. We met ended up meeting with and talking to three girls and they came to hang out with us and wanted to play cards with us. It was awesome. I also ended up getting to talk to one guy. Later on campus we tried to go and talk to people. My friend Daniel and I ended up getting to talk to one guy who was just sitting on a bench outside. We had a really good conversation and ended up exchanging contact information. Please pray for me and the rest of the team this week.
