Good Trip Up North


Here is a couple of pictures that we took last Saturday...sorry i wasnt able to load it up until now....it has been a great week of studying and doing ministry. This trip to the famous Nago Pineapple Park was awesome, and it was so awesome because it was free. We walked straight in, and we didn't have to pay, which was a blessing. God blessed us. And yes we chowed down, probably too much though!




Later that night we went out to Mihama and passed out tracts and witnessed to people on the streets. Here is a quick pic at the Jusco parking lot before we got started...I didnt take any pictures outside because it started to rain, and then i forgot to take pictures....so there is my excuse...forgive me...i will get some sweet Mihama photos up soon.

So pretty much it was a good trip up north in Okinawa.

Pedeheh on Island!!!



oh man....how blessed am I!?!?!? I got to hook up with my great friend and brother in the Lord, Trevor....who is a lover of pedeheh or peroggis. These are like little dough balls filled with mashed potatoes. Great...doesnt sound like much but it has like cheese in the potatoes....oh it is soooo good (Hey grandma we put some dill in too...told him about dilly buns)



But yeh we had a little pedeheh party at his house and tore up the eats! it was so much fun to eat food like this with someone i would never expect to even know what it is. It reminded me too much of home though...really do miss my family and friends...but i know this is where i am to be! Blessing to ya'll, grow in Jesus!

First Couple days

The first couple of days here have been great...it really feels that i haven't left...this is a picture from the first day in school. This is a pic from the 3rd floor building that we have or Bible College classes and church in. The view is not even close to being caught in its full beauty. God made this place so beautifully, amazing Lord!



This is a pic of two of my friends that i really missed while i was gone. Joe "Tippycanoe" Tipton in the orange (a great brotha in the Lord...amazing prayer warrior) and Yoshua in the sweet jimbe (formal Okinawan attire for festivals....oh yeh Yoshua is my close friend, continuing to learn how to play guitar...great bro!)
Good times in Revelations class!

This is the Yates (Brian, Ashley, Jordan, and Denise) Family that i minister with on the Foster Marine Base. They are a great family of 4 that i got to do youth group on Sunday nights last semester, and definitely plan to do it again. This picture was taken at the on base Pass building, where they were able to get all the students visitors passes for 3 months to get into all the cool places on base. This is a huge huge blessing, not even the Ruiz's have these passes! I am very blessed!


Well please continue to pray for me out here...i love you guys, talk to ya soon!

Easter Resurrection Sunday!


Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos
We had a great Sunday being with Jesus. I am glad you can come on here and check this out. Let me know what you guys think!! Hit me up some comment juice!
I love one thing that Tom said on Sunday. He said that back in their days of after Jesus resurrected, they would shout out to a crowd "He is Risen!!" And then the people in the crowd would call back out "Yes! He is Risen indeed!!!" Jesus is surely Risen, He is not dead! Praise the Lord for a day to proclaim with no fear of judgment that the Lord is Risen indeed!

Some real Marine food!!



Here we were blessed by being able to take part in eating a Marine MRE (Meal Ready to Eat). This is what our troops that are in the bush eat, with thousands of calories in each bundle. It may not look like a lot, but oh my gosh it will fill you up so much!! They have everything in there too! They have a bag that as you add a tiny bit of water, it will heat up and warm your food up, great!! Then they have desserts like cookies, M&Ms, and cakes. Man they dont mess around in those big Marines meal time! This is a real Dinner Time made (no so) easy!

Yakiniku!!!



Here is one of the best resturants that you can eat at in Okinawa, Japan. This is where you get a bunch of uncooked niku (Meat) and go to your table where there is a little grill. You toss your food on the barbee and chow down!! Ahh this food is awesome. And while you're are waiting they have all you can drink soda, cotton candy, ice cream, and precooked meats and soups! Good stuff here!



YessAsa!! Of course this place is number 1!



This meal is a little more expensive, around $9.80 a meal, but it is worth the full belly afterwards!!!

Barclay Court Outreach



We came out here...passed out some tracts and flyers, and lead some worship right on the busy street of Barclay Court....right in front of a Drive thru Starbucks! Some of you might think I'm ruffing it out here....surely thats not the case as you can see from the trip we made the a store called BEST....which is really just like a BestBuy back in the States.


What we did here is hop in some massage chairs and get down with our bad selves. Mostly it put people to sleep. I wet my pants when I got on it, but thats just me....for Tom on the other hand, he was literally about to cry...poor Tommy baby....




Good times after a fruitful outreach!!!

Sorry!!!

It has almost been a month!!! Man time has flown....but i will try to do some makeup BLOGS here....so get ready....here they come!!!!!!!

The "What Resturant is this?" Game!!!!



Where can you draw on tables and chow on great chocolate cake after dinner?!?! Did you guess yet...well for all lovers of Italian food...you better know....yep that is right, they have a.....






MACARONI GRILL!!!! whoooowhooooo!!! They have the Macaroni Grill here on Foster base...and when I went and spent the night with the people I minister with on Sunday night Youth group on Foster...they took me here!! It was a blessing....mmmm i chowed on some veal....reminds me of the day that Jon, Lina, and Krystal took me out before i left....tears.....haha good times.
