Okay! 

Things are going great!
These next 10 days are going to be crazy.  Tomorrow 189 volunteers will be coming to Tokyo and the interns will be leading them around that whole time (that means me).  Luckily, tomorrow is my off day so I will miss out on the airport craziness, but on wednesday I will dive into the busy schedules prepared for us!  
Please pray for the interns and the volunteers-that God would help us work well together.  So that means we will need a lot of love and patience :) 

Joshua could not meet at 1pm on Sunday so right now we are just waiting for another time to meet.  That is going to be a little difficult for the next week since we have almost 200 high school students to lead so please pray that God will make time in our schedules.

My meeting with Waka-son went wonderfully!  I met so many other contacts that night too!  Waka-son is a cook at the restaurant I met her at so she introduced me to the entire kitchen.  I feel like everyone I met that night was so welcoming and friendly!  It felt like family which reminded me of how much I wanted them to be a part of my eternal family.  I am meeting her there again on Wednesday.  She is bringing a friend.  Please pray for that meeting.

My time is coming to a close here, so I am naturally feeling frantic, but God started a work in Tokyo waaaay before I got here and will continue that work waaaaay after I leave, so I don't think I should be worried about the time I have left.  I know that He has so much more to do in the next two weeks though.  I'm so excited!!!  

I will be updating when I can :)

I love you all!!!
God BLESS YOU!!!

God really seems to be using you and the people you are with in a great way Erin!

It is really amazing what He can do with a few willing and faithful servants.

Thanks so much for the update.

It is always refreshing to hear what He is doing there.


I will certainly keep Joshua and Waka-son in my prayers.


Shine bright!
