Marlin and Jeanne (sweet Christian folks from what I`ve witnessed) working as usual. Marlin helped with translations during the game. He was co-host with me....so to speak! Jeanne deserves a medal. I don`t know how she keeps up with her hectic schedule. When we need anything, she`s there before we can get the words off our tongues. Thanks Jeanne.

And no one is more graceful than Yuriko Sugaya. Mrs. Sugaya is a new reader and is very active in her community. She particpates in many activities at the community center. We are signing her up for her next session for this upcoming week. She wasn`t able to attend the party later in the same day. Maybe God will use Sugaya-san to bring in some of her other community center friends as they are all close. Let`s ask for that possibility in prayer. And yes, we have to take our shoes off inside the houses and church. That`s why I`m wearing those slippers.
Do any of you know these two strangers I just happened to ask to pose in a picture with me? I don`t even know how to begin talking about these two (Jake and Tanya)! Ha! Phyllis and I met up with them in Tokyo. Their other team members, Tyler Snow, Tanis, and Sammy were with us also. Just let me say Woodland West is blessed to have these kids (they are compared to some of our ages). Jake led us to see key spots in Tokyo then escorted Phyllis and me to the train station, put us on the correct train back to Tomobe, and stood there until we couldn`t see him in the crowd any longer. I won`t say much about Tokyo because what happened there, stays there! Ha! Ha! Alright, Brenda Pollard, I`ll tell everyone about our trip there some other time.
Bye folks,
Tommie

Phyllis, thank you again for letting me use your camera batteries. I am really sorry that I ended up leaving with them. I intended to give them back to you, but you guys left the tower before we got back downstairs. I am so sorry. I can give them back or repay you when i get home. I dont think I will be able to get to you guys before LST ends. I am sorry again and hope this hasnt presented a problem for you.
