My New Church...

Today I attended church at Hongo Lutheran Church.  It is the closest church to where I am living so I thought I would check it out and I honestly enjoyed it and think I will continue attending during my year in Japan.  It is a small church, there are no more than 20 people, but it is all in Japanese which is what I wanted.  Thankfully someone translates the sermon onto a printed sheet so I was able to read what was said as well.  Most of the people speak English and there is a guy from Wisconson who has lived in Japan for about 7 years now.  They were very accommodating and friendly and I think it will end up being a good place to grow and learn.  The church has an English service at night so I will probably check that out sometime and there is also a student center so on another day I will probably stop by and try to meet some younger guys as I was the youngest in attendance, other than the pastor's kids.  Thanks for your prayers, I start school tomorrow!
