Trials in BJ

The art room is located in the remote area of BJ.

It took me about 1.5 hours to get to work. And about 2.5 hours to get back home.

At work, there is no AC. no fan. plus a nasty public bathroom.

many more days to come haha...

p.s. gotta fix my blog sometimes.

At Narita Airport


the beautiful neighborhood I was in.

Boo. Flight is delayed for me


So is Steve's flight to China from Chicago. I will have to wait in Beijing airport for 5-6 hours because of that.

Anyways...missionaries in Japan have been sweet. But Japan is blahh...tough! Tougher than I expected.

This lady from church told me that I could live at her house for free if I move to Japan. She also would tutor me Japanese once a week. Hahah doesn that sound a little too nice to be true?

Excited to meet up with my Cincy "friends" in Beijing. I need people. people people my age! hehe

Pictures Can Be Deceiving













The pictures of Aji can be deceiving. It is spiritually dead. It feels just sad giving out tracts and books in this town. This town is known for their stone industry. And those stones are used for idol worshiping.

My team here is trying to plant a church. Can you believe that there is only one Christian believer in this entire town!? At our last outreach event, we had a non Christian coming. Praise God for that.

Yah Aji pretty much summarizes my trip to Japan.

The Shikoku Team

<-This is my Japan team (well excluding the two Japanese).

We were invited to a Shabu Shabu dinner. The backyard is gorgeous!

Anyways, I am giving up on Wordpress. I think Blogspot is so much easier to use.

I am leaving my Shikoku team in 4 days. China in 6 days. Gonna stay in Yokohama for 1 night. Good that I can revisit the Chinese church there.

Hehe 3 teams in 3 months. The Sovereign Lord is my strength :)
