Hi everybody, How are you? I hope that everybody is well. I'm going to write a short blog post about what we're been doing on this Saturday. Thank God for bringing around 20 brothers and sisters to TGIS.

-Ice Break-

Today Wayne led the Icebreak. He introduced us the Plumber Game. It seemed easy but none of us could complete the water pipe. Why don't you try again?

-Worship-

Ronnie led the worship and we sang these beautiful songs The PA was done by Keiju and Travis.

1.Your Grace Is Enough

2.I GiveYou My Heart

3.Power Of Your Love

4.One Way

-Open Mike-

I told a true story about a Protestant chaplain and a Roman Catholic priest. That's the story of the "ingenuity." And Wayne asked us "Where do you find baseball matter in the Bible? ".....you can find the answer at the end of the blog.

-Message: Emmaus Road Experience-

Luke 24:13-"Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about weven miles from Jerusalem......"

Pastor Elmer shared a great message. After the death of Jesus two apostles were  going to a village named Emmaus. Then Jesus Himself approached and began traveling with them. Two apostles couldn't recognize Him Jesus because their eyes were prevented.

Jesus walked with them and spoke to them. He reclined at the table with them,  took the bread and blessed it, and breaking it. He begun to giving it to them. Then at last their eyes were opened and they recognized Him Jesus. Yes, today also Jesus opens our mind. He wants us to know the Emmaus Road Experience.

-Fellowship-

We had a nice time of fellowship with talking and eating. Thank you all for attending our TGIS.

*Information*       

We will go for an outing to the Koganei Park on October 1.We will share the further details later on. We're expecting you to come and join us.

Wonderful service this week,

Icebreaker was done my Miho who gave us some fun riddles that brought a smile to everyone's face.

Mamiko, Yue, Aki, Keiju and Wayne led us in worship with some lovely songs.

For open mic we had Anly and Kumi, Anly talked about repentance and Kumi told us about her trip and her aunt who had a great experience with the lord.  

Pastor Elmer's message was that God looks at the person from the inside the spirit whereas man look at people from the outside

The flesh he gave the example with David, the woman who went to the well to fetch some water, and of a church who was neither hot nor cold meaning that they would not do anything seriously for God.


God bless you all and hope to see you next week!
