This past March 12-14, three of us from Denen Grace cooperated with the our church group's Green Ribbon Campaign volunteer work in the tsunami affected area of Tohoku.

タイヤにチェーンをまいて、さぁ出発!と、コマーシャルのようにはいかなかった…(-"-;) ものすごく苦労してチェーンをまき、ようやく出発できたそうで、記念に(?)パチリ!
Yes, there was plenty of snow in the area and not intended for normal tires. Our "EZ on-off" chains were be no means easy. After some work we managed to get them on the tires and get on our way. Lesson learned about "spring in Tohoku."

保守バプテスト同盟の諸教会から13名がボランティアに参加しました。豆からひきたての、こだわりのおいしいコーヒとお菓子でカフェ♪
Thirteen of us worked together to offer the residents a "Mobile Cafe." This was a chance for them to get out of their small living quarters, mingle, talk about their experiences and challenges, and get a great cup of coffee or tea.
被災地復興の為に、継続した支援と祈りが必要です。イエス様の恵みをいただき、神様の愛のみわざがなされていきますよう、祈り続けていきましょう!
Thank for praying for us. Let's keep praying for Tohoku and ask God to bring emotional and spiritual healing.
