I had my last Open House classes at Kokubunjidai on Friday. My afternoon ladies came 30 minutes early, since we needed to make up a class, and stayed 45 minutes late because it was so hard to admit that our time together was over. This is the class that was born when we convinced the two person evening class to join the afternoon class. What fun it turned out to be! How well they bonded! I really enjoyed these ladies, and it was a very nice way to end the week. Please pray that God will send a very godly and gifted teacher to take the helm of my Kokubunjidai classes in the fall. There is not much “turn around” time for getting here, but our God is never limited by these kinds of circumstances. In fact, once when a teacher came in this kind of a hurry, she ended up marrying someone she met on the field. So you never know what other wonderful things God is going to weave together as He continues to care for these ladies and all my Open House students.
Of course, the Friday afternoon ladies don’t yet know what a wonderful and true God we serve! You, or someone you know, might just be the “last link in the chain” for them to come to faith. Let’s pray earnestly for a replacement.
