Blessed Retreat!

We are back from our 3 day retreat up in Okuma. Though it was cloudy most of the time, God held back the rain and we were able to enjoy the beauty of Okinawa. Other than relaxing, eating, and having fun, we head 4sessions together. Pastor Rich from Fuchu (I was there at his church over summer in Tokyo) came down to speak for our retreat. We went through the book of 2 Timothy. The theme of our retreat was "Being Faithful to the Lord." God spoke to us in many ways, and we were totally blessed by the teachings and also our relationships with each other. Only 3 more weeks of the semester left. May it even get better.

A beautiful view of Okinawa.

Mmmmm. We love to eat. While we were up in Okuma, we also spoiled ourselves with good food and desserts.

Baby TOMOKI NEWELL!!!!!
I finally got to see the newest blessing to the Newell Family. He is super cute.

Worship time by the bonfire.

Lots and Lots and Lots of Fellowship. Praise Jesus.
