Welcome Home!

Our Oldest son Micah spent 5 nights 6 days at Lake Shatak Bible Camp last week. This was big deal for almost 11 years old and also his family.

He was so excited to be away from home but his siblings missed him terribly.

We prayed for him every morning and night and Micah seemed was too busy to thinks about home.

Family discipleship ministry of Bethlehem does extraordinary job to organize this high energy , fun filling yet highly spiritual youth camp.

Kids were well fed with words and Bible messages.

Now, I (Asa) grown up in Japanese church and had participated in church camps but it seems there is no comparison between them as far as how much fun they have at the camp. Real life Clue ,Moon light swimming , Cabin raid, all kinds of crazy games.... I wish Japanese kids could experience this kind of pure fun as well as good solid Bible teaching. There is no room for computer games or Nintendo. Would someone consider to come to Japan for summer and lead this kind of high energy camp??

Here is a picture of Micah and his cabin counselor

Mr.Wennis, when they returend from camp. He is in TBI track II program.

We really thank him who ate , slept and prayed with Micah and other boys in a hot summer cabin. It must be some experience!!

Did Micah have changed through this camp experience? From out side it is just his skin got tan. However, inside, we convinced that God planted lots of seeds in him. Most of kids at the camp memorized more than 10 long verses. We are looking forward to see the seed will produce fruits someday. Welcome Home Micah!!
