Fig is an acrostic for Faith in God from Mark 11:22. We as missionaries living in Japan enjoy our FIG in Japanese or In Nihon Go (ING). Here we are figing away in a beautiful country Japan. This started out as a place for family to get updates and pictures but now this goes all over the world. Praise God. May you be blessed as you read my posts. Some funny, some sad, & some really stupid and embarrassing for my family.

Tall buildings lots of people sad hearts
Hello, We are doing great here. I have uploaded a picture of one of our apartment buildings. We live on a third level of 5 stories a smaller one than the 7 or 8 story buildings. Pastor Travis shared in the Service this morning that his mother witnessed the aftermath of a jumper. That is the third person in his complex that jumped this year. It's not pretty and his mother visiting from Hawaii saw all the police and emergency crews. The Japanese have no hope other than a deep conviction they are doing the right things by maintaining their traditions. But when they don't measure up or are seen as an outcast they loose all hope and purpose for living. May God allow us to spread the message of eternal hope. We found our downstairs neighbor's mother is in the hospital I don't know why but pray for Mrs Katou and her recovery. Today we had two strange happenings with weird people. Pray for our safety and eyes to be open to avoid odd situations. Later
