More GREAT News!

#154
Today, we were invited to two classes at Jikei Medical University, taught by a Christian professor from Hawaii. He didn't do a lecture- he just introduced the 6 of us (the other half of the team was at Waseda) and then just let us break up into groups and have conversations with the students for the entire class period (an hour and a half each). It was EXHAUSTING, as the students there didn't have the highest level of Japanese, but what a great opportunity! Many students got to hear about the gift of salvation in Christ too.

Ryan had a pretty tough first class- the students he talked with spoke VERY little English, and he was pretty discouraged during lunchtime because of how hard that convo was. So he/we prayed that he would have better English speakers during the 2nd period. Well, not only did he get two girls that spoke much better English, but through their conversation, and Ryan sharing the Gospel with them (with a bit of translating help from Ron, the professor), BOTH of them ended up accepting Christ!! YAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That makes three new sisters in Christ this week here in Tokyo! Please be praying for them, as this is a vulnerable and crucial time for them.
