MAY 30... day 3 :)

So today was a pretty sweet day and Crist really showed my team today how amazing he can truly be to us if we constantly seek HIS name!!!

We started off our 3rd day of oreintation and learning about our different evangelism methods and all sorts of other things! We had our worship service which was different than the past few days, but still God speaks still :) I love it! So today was a pretty nice day an dit didn't rain! I went running this morning at about 7 and it was just great weather :) I wish I could be that motivated at home to wake up and run in the morning in such beautiful weather :) Anyway after I ran I got dressed and started my day and it really kicked off slow, but ended up amazing :)

We found out our summer teams today who we will be with all summer and though I do not know either of my partners very well, I will get to know them really well all summer! lol My summer partners are Rachel and Brian and it will be a great summer :) We will be at the university I went to yesterday and the same train station that I was located at yesterday... So I am pretty excited about being a tour guide in a few days for my new partners because they have never been :) lol We also got our positions assigned today and I am the WIGTAKE which stands for whatever it takes to get the job done :) So my mail job is to organize the distribution of the Gospel of John getting into every mailbox in my train station! Crazy!!! I am ready :)

Today was scheduled for park evangelism but our M decided to give everyone a day off allowing them to visit their university if they were not aware of where it was and or anything on the campus! :) Our only scheduled event was at 6 pm today and it was a karaoke party with any of our contacts that we have made in the past 3 days. Well we hall had several contacts, but no one on my team had anyone showed up for our karaoke party which was upsetting, but through HIM we found why we were remaining in the area of our station and continueing to wait for people. Christ set up an mazing divine appointment with two of the guys on my team with an older Japanese man and it was amazing! This older man has a mentor who is a Japanese christian and is telling this man we were talking to about Christ!!! So how amazing is it that Christ already has set up someone in his live that is investing in telling him about Christ and then we are apart of his path today and get to share more! The friend we made would not share his mentors name but please pray for these two men! The Christian and the new contact we have made!

After out divine appointment with this prescious man we went to eat and enjoyed some Japanese subway sandwiches :) Tasted pretty sweet! We had the day mostly to ourselves... our lunch we went as an iWitness team to eat at Pepper Lunch! It was a little expensive but great :) I had a type of chicken and rice... how common :D You cook the meat yourself so that is pretty sweet and I had fun with it!... After lunch a few of us went to get some strawberry filled danishes and YUM! So Tokyo has a 3 story wal-mart which of course is not really a wal-mart but they sure do stuff everything into this store in three storys! It was crazy but hey I got to buy me some groceries and was happy about that :)

So today was amazing and Christ truly blessed all of our days! I will update you guys on some other teams news if I hear about it tomorrow morning and remember to post it!

PRAYER REQUESTS:
-My new team..brian and Rachel and I that we can connect and really rely on each other this summer!
-the older japanese man we had a divine appointment with! please pray for his heart and his willingness to allow his friend to invest in his life!
-Please pray for the older man's friend who is already a Christian!!! I ask that you pray for his guidance from God! Praise the Lord that he has blessed our new contacts life!!!
-Please continue to pray for our whole team as a whole and that we will all continue to prepare our hearts daily for God's amazing work!!!

Thank you guys sooo much!!!
