What is it like in Japan?

"We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God." 2 Corinthians 5:20 NIV

In looking back on notes from our last team meeting and I wrote down that the Japanese apparently really love gospel music. Lighthouse Church apparently has a decent sized choir, but for the most part the members don't really know about whom they are singing.

There may be limited opportunities for us to actually verbally share our faith, so for the most part, the church members and those around the area will be watching our actions and interactions as we work on the building. They've never had a group this size (11) come with the intent of working.

This weekend it's Cross Cultural Training (CCT) Saturday and a team meeting on Sunday to continue to get to know one another and "Spiritual Preparation". Who would have thought that the first month in this process would go by so quickly? I know none of us did.
