Was miserable on the overnight flight to Japan... couldn't get to sleep and not long after, the spectacular display of lights stretched across the horizon. It was gorgeous man..
The air was fresh, the land is clean, the sun was BRIGHT, and I... was the contrary!!!
NONETHELESS I'm in Japan! Kyushu Island!
First Destination: Fukuoka Harvest Church
Though we didn't have a session there
It was nice to see the church and the view of the prefecture from the church was pretty (warning: sorry my picture didn't bring it justice)
By the way, the "speck" in the mid of the pic is actually a plane!
hahaha I truly apologise... hahaha yea the airport's about 15min of the church
and since our church is on the top of the hill, we see planes landing all the time.
We were made to wear slippers everywhere we go...
So back on the bus, we headed to another prefecture, Kumamoto, about 2 hours away from Fukuoka. And this was our hotel/resort/chalet for the next 3 days.
7 girls to a room with 1 bathroom and we slept in that room.
At night, the chamberlady would bring the mattress out and we slept on tatami
And it was actully really comfortable.
The beginning of food, Food and MORE FOOD...
Okay. So we were in Japan, and they brought us to eat... chinese food?
Not quite actually... kanna cheated. hahah it was actually was a BBQ place.
How deceiving right...
And we sat on the floor.
And set the stove on fire.
Here are just some of Japs who were friendly and polite like most japs (:
They wave and bow and smile... alot.
There were 2...
And then there were 3...
And I kanna roped in to take this picture with Miss Wanxia, pastor's son and takafumi.
Last but not least...
Shopping & sightseeing.
The first thing that greeted me at Canal City...
And we found Graniph & And A!
ROSY ROSA
Everyone congregated at the ramen place past midnight on the very last night for their last bowl of the famous Ramen from Ichiran.
KITTENS! at a super smelly pet shop.
Didn't stay long enough to tak more shots... hahaha sssssssmellly.
On the last day, we managed to catch the last 100yen bus to take us back to the hotel.
Ah... the sight of reclaimed land means that I'm home and the weather has confirmed it.
This has been the furthest mission trip I've been and it was so exciting to see the japanese on fire for God and man do they know how to praise God. And while I was there, I had a vision of japanese filling up a stadium like how they fill stadium to watch baseball. But in this vision, I saw them praising and worshipping God in full exuberance, love and faith. Wa... think mega Emerge Conference. And with that in mind, I can't wait to go to bigger cities of Japan in the near future.
Next Mission Trip: Taiwan in July
