Kimono Day!

Wow, what times.  How it flies! (We did kimono day at school!  Wow, those things are tight around you and take time to put on!  But they are so pretty!)

Even though I had two days off school last week, it's Monday and I feel as if I need a day off.  :)  So, this last week has involved everything from signing papers and paying for my new apartment, welcoming in 2 new girls from America and helping them get settled in and see the area, preparing for a message, practicing bass and doing an extra large lifegroup last night!

So, usually we don't do this but, last night my lifegroup was 11 girls.  I know. We like to keep it to about 6 maximum, but I have about 3 or 4 regulars and then another 4 or so girls who come once or twice a month.  Well, last night, one of my girls invited 3 friends, and then the 2 American girls and another English speaker and a straggler came as well. 

But, it actually came out to be a good idea.  At one table, we ended up splitting into 2 groups-- English speakers and Japanese speakers... and of course, I led the English group and then Saki led the Japanese group.  It was a good opportunity for training, since she will lead the group while I am in America next month.  It turned out really well!

Apart from that, things seem to be going pretty well!  I'm busy getting things set up for the move in 3 weeks weeks (wow!) and set up in America for my visit home to do some visiting and support raising and then also just in general, I feel like God is blessing many areas. 

Well, I have homework and stuff to get to before another long day of tomorrow!

Catch ya'll later!!
