Hello!
What a busy month October was and November looks to be a busy one as well. One very special event that our family has taken part in has been the Okinawa Baptist Evangelistic Festival held over five days from November 5-9, 2008.
The Okinawa Baptist Convention decided to make their annual fall meeting into a special time where Christians could bring their friends to hear the gospel. Each day was dedicated to a different part of society. Wednesday night was a time for the church members to meet and pray. Thursday was for the women, Friday was for the young people,
Saturday was for men and Sunday afternoon was aimed at children
.At all of these meetings, fun activities were planned as well as time for more serious thoughts on the Gospel and what it means to meet Jesus. We are excited to see what the results are but we know of at least five children who made first time decisions for Christ and many others who made a decision to live more fully for Christ.
These photos are of some of the activities. Please pray for the OBC, for those who have made decisions for Christ and for those who have heard the Gospel for perhaps the first time.
Blessings,
David and Leslie
