Today I am very lucky

       

As we were cleaning out a small office building, one man showed me how he felt very lucky because he walked into the lower floor of his building and found these papers in the mud and rubble. His building is owned by a group of local businessmen who pooled their money for the investment. The first column lists the name of the business, and the second column lists the president of those companies. He felt lucky because most of these men were washed away with the Tsunami, and this will help him to remember his friends.

      Lori, the typhoon moved over us last night. There was much wind and rain but we are all well. It should not affect our leaving schedule. We have one more day here in Tono before we head back to Tokyo and begin our trek home. Our prayer is that we finish strong and finish well. Thanks for all your prayers!! God has been working and it has been amazing to be a part of what He is doing here in Japan!! Kristin
