Dear Friend and Partner,

"Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world." James 1:27

It`s hard to believe we moved to Mississippi via Pennsylvania via Japan just three years ago. Although it has been in my heart to get back to Japan as soon as possible, God is making it clear that He has sent us here for "such a time as this." 

I believe He is upgrading us, in the spiritual realm, and bringing us into a greater place of intimacy with Him. I am learning that our move here was not just for our son Jacob`s sake, but that it is a time that God can work in us and re-orientate some directions in terms of what we must do in the days ahead.

God continues to open a door to translate Japanese at the nearby Nissan Manufacturing plant in Canton, MS. I am close to many Japanese men everyday. Michelle, as you know, cleans the church we attend and sews at Ballet Magnificat. And, we all seek to love and be in His presence.

We truly thank God for you. We will keep the testimonies, etc., going to you via FB. And, we look forward to staying in touch with you!

INTERNATIONAL BALLET COMPANY (IBC)

We just spent the last couple of weeks encouraging Jacob and Abigail as they participated in the 2014 USA International Ballet Company (IBC) Dance School. At the end of the program, Jacob and Abigail both received scholarships to the Oklahoma City Ballet School Summer  Program for the summer 2015. Out of the around 270 students, 15 scholarships were given out of which two of them went to Jake and Abbie. 

I thank God for the Glory of the Lord being seen through the art of dance and ballet. Pray for them as they begin Ballet Magnificat`s summer intensive program this weekend.

WELCOME HOME SAMANTHA

We look forward to Samantha`s return after finishing a

semester at Hillsong. Although she enjoyed it much and would have liked to stay, she felt God leading her not to stay for second semester and will be coming home on the 7th of July. 

She is believing God for her return ticket. She needs about $1350.00.  If you would like to help her with this expense, she would really appreciate it. Just let us know, and we will pass it along. 

We are looking forward to seeing her again. We feel confident that God's hand is on her as she returns to MS.  She has learned a lot and will be interesting to see the new season manifest. 

TRIP TO OH/PA

Thank you for your love and friendship. We thank God for you and really need your prayers daily. In July, the 20th to the 30th, we look forward to heading to OH & PA to see friends and family. We are so excited to catch up with you. Please pray for us as we make the trip.
