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.

Thankgiving in Iruma
Well this is what we ate. Japan isn't turkey friendly and Ham is only on the military bases or you pay 30 to 40 dollars for a softball size ham. We went to costco and had their world famous broiled chicken. Mihoko is getting good with the little toaster oven and made some corn bread and we had some other goodies. It was great. Then we have Me eating a full on Bolinger style breakfast. Scrambled eggs, Pancakes with apricot pineapple jelly, coffee, and a good glass of milk. Thanks to friends who sent us these items we were so blessed. You can't get bisquik here nor apricot pineapple jelly. We are so blessed to have friends like you that think of us and want to send us things we want. These aren't needs like we need a car but these are home comforts and truly they are blessings. The other picture is some actual bean burritos. We get the refried beans at costco and some mile cheddar and wah lah we have bolinger bell in Iruma Japan. We do eat regular food too like hamburger helper and PBJs. I have not acquired the taste for fish, rice, and miso soup in the morning.
Sorry this post is so not spiritual but from time to time I am just going to blog about things my mom or sisters might enjoy looking at. In this case the person who blessed us with these items found a special place in our heart for a taste of home. Thank you and God bless all of you praying and providing. God is doing an amazing work.
