God’s Blessings

I have to tell you about a recent missions conference we attended here in Alabama! This supporting church of ours really goes all out for missions, and they love missionaries! They asked for a wish list, including things we need for ministry, family, or just our wildest dream. We put the normal stuff, including gifts to take back to Japan. But Norman, dreaming big, put down a request for money to buy a big motorcycle in Japan, perhaps even a Harley??? For those of you who aren’t familiar with Norman’s latest ministry, he has been using motorcycles as a way to make new friends and build relationships.

Anyway, to make a long story short, this bike is a reality! Even the church people doubted whether they could fill that wish, but God did a work…and Norman’s ministry will continue! If nothing else, this showed Norman that bikers should continue to be a part of his outreach focus.

Thank you to the supporting churches out there who trust in God to do amazing things! And thank you all for your faithful support and prayers.
