getting colder...

well, fall is here, and the weather is changing. I personally like the summer, the heat, rather than the cool air. The people here is saying that it's cool and nice, but to me it's cold. I even wear a jacket now haha
but it will get colder as we move forward to winter time...i need to get a thick jacket than...

秋が来て、気温も変わっていく。個人的には夏(暑い)方を好んでいる。内地の人にとっては涼しくていい天気と言っているけど、俺には寒い。今も、すでに、ジャケットを着ている。
季節と共に温度も下がる・・・分厚いジャケット買わないと・・・

WWW (Whenever, Wherever, Worship)

After Youth Fun Day, Mariko Miyagi came up with the idea for any Christians to gather at CCFuchu to come and just have a time of worship. Not many people came, but people gathered, brought their instruments, and we just jammed. It was a great time just to gathered together in the name of Jesus, and to praise His name with the gifts that He has given to us.

ユース・ファン・ディーの後、宮城マリコがCC府中で賛美の時間を持つイベントを実行しました。いっぱいの人は来なかったけど、楽器を持ってきた人たちもいて、一緒に主をほめたたえました。キリストの名を通して集まり、主が与えてくれた賜物を通して主を賛美する時間を持てたことに感謝です。

Saturday Youth Fun day!

At CCFuchu they have a saturday youth fun day, like once a month. The youth (mainly the Miwa familys) come and play games at the church and just a time of hanging out. And normally they have a short message, but this time I had the opportunity to share my testimony to the youths who came. It was a blessed time for me, as I was able to get to know the youths and to encourage them through my testimony.
Also the youths bought birthday present for Rich (his birthday is on the 29th) and had a little small celebration too.

CC府中では多分一ヶ月に一回にユース・ファン・ディーを行っています。これは、ユースが教会に集まって、ゲームと交わりの時間を過ごす日です。短いメッセージもいつもしているみたいだけど、今回は自分の証を分かち合いました。とても祝福な時間を過ごすことができ、また自分の証を通してユースたちを励ますことが出来たと思う。
リッチさんの誕生日は29日だけど、ユースたちがリッチさんに誕生日プレゼントを買ってきて、小さな誕生祝をしました。

Another bike day

Today me and Caroline went on to another bike ride adventure in Fuchu. This time we went to Fuchu Station area. But before we went on to our adventure, Caroline made a wonderful breakfast! It was amazing!!

今日キャロラインとまた自転車に乗って府中を冒険しに行きました。今回は府中駅ら辺を回りました。でも冒険に出かける前に、キャロラインがすばらしい朝ごはんを作ってくれて、でーじ祝福だった!


Toast, egg, mashrooms, salad, rice, and jalapeno thingy!!
トースト、卵、きのこ、サラダ、ご飯、それとハラペニョ!!

After breakfast we headed to the Fuchu Station. The first place we stopped by was the 100yen store. There Caroline bought some stuff as a souvenior gift to her family.

朝食後、府中駅に向かい、最初に訪れたのがダイソー。そこで、キャロラインはお土産を買いましたとさ。笑

Than we met up with Rich, Candice, Zach, Lewis, Kumiko, and Mariko for lunch, Sushi Roll! I only ate six plates, because my stomach was still full from breakfast. It was a nice lunch time fellowship!

その後、リッチ、キャンディス、ザック、ルイス、久美子とマリコと一緒に寿司ローで昼ごはんを食べました。朝ごはんでまだおなかがいっぱいだったから、皿六枚しか食べなかった。でも、とても良い昼の交わりだったよ!

Zach looks bloated lol ザックが太ってるように見える(笑



After lunch, me and Caroline went back to Fuchu Station to look around more. And when we were about to ride back to church, Caroline spotted a puppet show! It was cute, and some of the little kids got scared of it haha

昼を食べた後、またキャロラインと府中駅に戻りました。教会に戻るときに、キャロラインがパペット劇をしている人を見つけたので、それをちょっと見ました。とても可愛い劇で、周りにいた子供たちは猫のパペットを恐れていた・・・(( ̄◇ ̄;)ガーン

Birthday Party!!


Today we had a boy, Ryougo, who turned five today! So at the school we had a little birthday party for him! May God continue to grow him and guide his life.
今日りょうご君は五歳になりました!学校で小さな誕生日会をしたよ!神様が彼の人生を導き、成長することを祈ります!

Happy Birthday Ryougo!!

Game night!

On Monday, due to Japanese holiday (Respect for the Aged Day), so there was no school. So in the evening some of us gathered together for a good ol' BBQ and board games, and also Ping-Pong. It was a really good time of fellowship and a great time of laughter (as we played charade).

月曜日は敬老の日だったから、学校はお休み!その為、何人か教会に集まってバーベキューとゲームをしました!(卓球も)。とても楽しい交わりと笑いの時だったよ!(ジェスチャーゲームがとても楽しかった!)

Can you guess what they are trying to act out?
何をジェスチャーしているか分かるかな?

Biking around town

Caroline, from Hawaii, is here for a short time helping at the church right now. And she wanted to see around town today (because it was a holiday, so no school), so we went biking around town.
First we went toward one of the park called Nogawa, than to a neighborhood area around Koganei, than we stopped at Denny's and ate breakfast, than we went through the graves (Tama-reien), and back to the church area, than to another park called Musashino, and all the way around the Ajinomoto Stadium, than back to the church. It was a fun ride!

ハワイから短期、教会の手伝いに来ているキャロラインと今日自転車に乗って町に観光しに行きました!祝日だったので、時間があったのだ!最初に野川公園に行き、小金井ら辺の住宅街を通って、Denny'sで朝ごはん済まし、多磨霊園を通って教会に戻り、その後また教会ら辺にある公園(武蔵野の公園)に行き、味の素スタジアムを回って、教会に戻りました!とても楽しかった!

2 year anniversary


9/11 marks the 2 year anniversary of CCFuchu!
So at the church, Pastor Rich had an 2 year anniversary party/outreach on Sunday evening. Most of the moms that comes to the Pre-School here is unsaved. And on Sunday evening, many of the moms (and their children) came.
The CCFuchu worship team played couple of worship songs, Candice danced hula to "Come just as you are", and the friend of the Miwa family, Misa, came and played songs. Also Pastor Rich shared short version of his testimony. It was a great time!

 

9・11にCC府中の2周年記念を祝いました!
日曜の夕方にその2周年を祝うパーティー(アウトリーチ)をしました。ここの保育園に来る大体のお母さん方はまだ救われていません。でも、日曜の夕方にほぼのお母さん方(子供も)来てくれました。
CC府中の賛美チームは賛美を何曲か演奏してくれて、キャンディスは"Come just as you are"の曲に合わせてフラダンスをしてくれて、美和家族の友達のみささんもギターを演奏しに来てくれました。それと、リッチ牧師は彼の証(ショートヴァージョン)を分かち合ってくれました。とても楽しい時となりました!
