Day 8, August 12, Travel

    Today was actually a relaxing day, not much to write.  We could sleep in a little, and then had to pack all our gear, deflate our air beds and clean up the church and put it back the way it was when we came.  We ate breakfast and then carried (rolled) our luggage a block and a half to the bus because it is a full-sized, 55 seat bus that is too big to fit on the street where Pastor BJ's church is.  2 hours to the first stop and lunch.  2 hours to the next stop (by law bus drivers have to stop at least every 2 hours).  The final leg was about 30 mins to Iwata.  We then got set up in the church sanctuary, had fellowship, dinner, practiced our hippo song, practiced our David and Goliath skit & then sento.  During our fellowship time, we had two visitors who spoke.  One is the chairman of the Iwata City Soccer Association, and the other was a team coach and chairman of the Junior High Soccer Association.  These men are not believers so pray that the impact our team has on them is positive, and that it will help facilitate Pastor Hasui's ability to reach places he couldn't normally reach because of their influence.  Thanks for your health prayers too as the colds seem to be getting better.
