I know, it's been way too long since I've made a blog post. But all that is about to change, because a lot has changed already. For instance, I'm married now. This is a wonderful thing, and even though I've only been married for about three weeks, I'm loving every second of it. Tomo has already become a great source of encouragement and motivation, and we've been talking a lot about how we're going to get to Japan, and what our plans are going to look like. But I'm getting a little bit ahead of myself. Let me fill you in a little on the details first.
On May 30th, 2009, Tomo and I were finally married, after spnding an excruciatin ten months of our engagemtn on different continents. The wedding took place in Tokyo, Japan, in the same church that I first went to help on a short term missions trip back in 2003. I had no idea at that time that I would even return to Japan, much less come back again and again and eventually return to marry Tomo in the very same church I had been privilidged to serve on so many occasions. It was an incredible experience.
That about cathces ou up to speed on where we're at and where God is taking us. One thing we've decided we need to be doing more often is keeping all of you updated, so we'll be updating this blog faithfully every Monday night. So check back to hear from either Tomo or I what God has been doing in our lives, and what progress we've made in getting to Japan!
