Hi Friends,
開けましておめでとうごさいます。
Happy New Year!
Hope you’re having a great start to the New Year.
We are now accepting applications for the Summer 2009 mission to Japan. Applications are online at www.gopgm.org and the application deadline is January 31st.
This year’s mission will be under the leadership of Daryl & Sheri Kobata who were my assistant directors last year. They are planning to return to Shizuoka in Mid to late July for a 2 week mission. The cost will tentatively be $2750 and includes Airfare, Lodging, transportation, and most meals. This team is looking for light construction help, Children’s ministry team, performance oriented (hula, vocals, etc.) members.
We’re still setting up the Tokyo/Yokohama mission details. But stay tuned. Brad Watanabe will be leading that mission team. And it will once again be a ministry to College and young adults. There’s a possibility that this mission will also include a performance team to play in various concerts & music venues.
That’s the update for now.
Blessings!
Pastor Arlen
PS- it might help to learn a little bit of Japanese, and I suggest this excellent website to assist you.
