Let the count down start...

We have 12 days left here in Japan. It is very strange and sad knowing that I only have one more time to study with some of the people I have studied with for the last 15 months. Lots of great things have happened over the past year, and we are grateful to God for those things.

Without further ado... a video and some more pics of the best souvenir anyone could ask for from Japan!

More Pics and a Quick Update...

We are coming down to our last few weeks here in Japan. In case you don't already know, we are flying home on Monday, October 27! We definitely have mixed feelings about this as we don't want to break away from the relationships we have formed here over the past year and a half, but we are ready to come home to see family and friends!

I recently got accepted for an apprenticeship through KAIROS, a church planting organization! I will be an apprentice (at least for the next year) with Agape Church of Christ in Portland, OR. We were planning on helping the church in Portland anyway, but this gives us 60% of the funding we needed to raise for this apprenticeship. We are still looking for an additional $500 a month if you would be interested in supporting us for this apprenticeship.

Caeden is continuing to do really well! We go to the doctor for his last checkup here on Saturday. I added some random pictures and a few videos of Caeden in the slide show below. You can just click on the picture if you want to see a bigger version of it. Again, after you click on a photo, you can view a full screen slide show by clicking the "slideshow" button in the upper left corner of the page.
