I hope you can read the text - these are some random web cards I found online. Hilarious.
Happy birthday to my mom -
and the plethora of other friends who share November as their birthday month!
(that includes me.)
So, I turned 23 years old today. This week I celebrated my first birthday overseas. It was pretty epic! Monday, I had a really fun night with a lot of friends here in Tokyo. We ate at this great Japanese restaurant called "Harvest." I was really surprised by how many people came and all the presents I received. Thank you to everyone who has wished me a happy birthday! It was a great week!
In general, things are pretty fantastic actually. The kiddos were super excited at the yochien today. We sang "If You're Happy and You Know It..." and I thought they would never stop shouting hooray. So cute! I also met a really cool girl at Waseda University - one of my first new contacts for this year - so that's exciting and I can't wait to see what God has in store for our friendship! At Todai, I've been working on checking the English website for the School of Engineering. It's a daunting task - but I'm learning a lot about my new workplace during the process. LOGOS, our Chi Alpha Bible study at Todai, was great this week with Ty and Cina Silva - the Book of Hope and Chi Alpha directors for Asia Pacific.
God is showing us more and more that He is ready to move in a new way through our ministry at these campuses, especially Waseda University. Please be in prayer for us as we seek His will for our Bible studies and our outreaches! I'm so excited to be a part of what God is doing in Tokyo right now!
Until soon.
Amanda
