The Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa Senior Pastor's conference was a great time to hang out in Murrietta and enjoy the fellowship. Travis Takamiya from CC Tokorozawa was there. Tommy Ruiz from CC Ginowan, Masaru Oshiro from CC Naha, Rick Barnett form Okinawa,Mike Silva from CC Iwakuni, Francis from Rwanda, Chizuo Sakurai from CC Kokubunji, Tak Anma from CC Hamamatsu, Katsumi Santo from CC West Tokyo, and there were two Chaplains from the Marines on Okinawa one is Dennis Wheeler, I can't remember the name of the other guy, sorry. Also in the pictures is Pastor James Stewart from Oklahoma City and Lance Cook from CC Lahabra. We were able to bless the guys with some sushi and entertainment and just hang out fellowshipping. God is so good.
We had a great time with the other pastors from japan they are such a blessing. I am hoping to introduce you all to them. All of them have sacrificed so much to go and serve the Lord in some very hard soil.
We celebrated Pastor Tommy Ruiz's birthday early and he had to wear this funny Sumo cap and take a picture. It was a humbling moment to say the least. Tommy is a trooper he works with CCBC in Okinawa so he is used to this, I think.
Pray for these guys that God would continue to bless them, their families and their churches.
