Day 09 - Touch me with your love

Saturday, 10 December 2005 AD





Ruth gave us a recipe to make a pear cake this morning.

The cakes will be used for a Kids' Christmas Party this afternoon. The Japaneses appreciate how much time, love and effort Ruth puts in baking cookies and cakes all year round.

Even though baking cookies seems to be a long and ardious process I'm beginning to see just how valuable Ruth's cooking ministry is in supporting the work of Martin in teaching God's word to the Aomori region.

ps: notice how Grace looks like Beth Orton in the last photo.. hence the song title for the post hehe :p

Prayer points:
- Thank God for the time, love and effort people put into baking the cakes. Pray that this will point the people to Christ.
- Pray that Ruth's cooking ministry will continue to be fruitful in building relationships with the community and supporting Martin's teaching ministry.

wow! tasty looking cake :)

it's really interesting what you've said about the distance ppl are having to go to meet for church as i guess living in suburban Sydney, we often only would spend 40 mins or under getting to church in comparison to the time these people are spending.

it's great to hear and see how things have been going and also makes doing short term overseas missions look really cool !
