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.

A Visit from home
Hey everyone, we had special visitors today. Maria Naito and her daughter Esther and Mrs Kainuma San. It was a sweet time of fellowship. Maria's husband went to be with the Lord last year after a fight with cancer and she is moving on and ministering the best way she can. Her daughter is in Shin Saitama I believe near Ikebukuro teaching English. Mrs Kainuma also lost her husband a while ago and she is living very near Mihoko's aunt in Ogikubo. It was great fellowship and just to be with good friends from home. A slice of heaven. Kainuma san knew Mihoko and I back 18 years ago in California. We were living in LaHabra after our wedding and she was living in Fullerton Hills. We visited their house and had fellwoship. So it was good to have some tea and time together.
Another note is Mihoko just celebrated her <*O*> birthday and it was a time of experienmentation as we have been trying to make things in our Toaster/Convection oven. Cornbread was okay and the other day it was cake mix. It turned out great. We can now make B-day cakes and other stuff and not burn or blow it up.
Pray for Rachel as happy as she seems in the picture she is now down with a fever and cough like the rest of the family. We have medicine and instructions to follow but we just want her to be healed.
