Question: Where in the world were Steve and I on that memorable day? Not at the airport I hear! I do remember the incredible sadness I felt at your departure. We must have said our goodbys in another setting. Anyway, you guys have certainly remained faithful to your calling.

The difference is that i had lived in the Philippines for one year and I was married to a Japanese which softened the transition greatly. For us it was more like moving from my world to hers. I first stepped foot on Japanese soil in the southern island of Okinawa where we spent 2 weeks with Hiromi's family, Since then we have started two churches, rescued about 120 people from cults and rasied three kids. Also, since then, my wife's father and younger brother have died. These days, with Lydia about to launch out on her own and Rebekah entering her last year of high school we find ourselves talking about, what now? We would like to move south, back to Hiromi's hometown in Okinawa and spend time with her mother. But who knows. Life seems very much in transition now. Alas, middle age!jon duganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01314422759460470711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30007496.post-1170853584743824162007-02-07T11:06:00.000-02:002007-02-07T11:06:00.000-02:00Oi Nedra!!
