JAPAN Day 12

Hello friends. Japan day 12!

We all had the morning off today. Just to rest in time for our BIG day at the joy festival tomorrow morning.
Kate and I started our day at the local starbucks, with good coffee and some quiet time and prayer! Needed it this morning. God is SO good! Thanks for all your prayers back home, we have needed it this week. Defiantly couldn't do it without Gods strength.

 Starbucks goodness. Reading 'Life is' by the one and only Judah Smith!

 A wet and rainy day here in Japan. Was kind of nice after a few hot days. Loving the black and white! Plus i love the rain... just not the cold! So its perfect when its a good 24 degrees! Also most Japanese people are highly skilled at riding a bike with an umbrella. They all do it!

 Our street here in Yokohama.

 Went out prayer walking in another part of Yokohama. Basically a red light district, lots of gambling and prostitution. Was awesome to pray God into those areas. Laura and I also prayed for a girl who had broken her arm. She felt the Holy Spirit, and said she felt joy and the pain leave! Go God!

 Another few testimonies from the team- a few people also gave their lives to God after hearing the gospel and experiencing the Holy Spirit.
One guy was healed of an ankle injury- he couldn't believe it, he also have his life to God.

 This building had a vine growing up it.

 We spoke to this guy on the street. And prayed a blessing over him. He came back and gave us a bag full of bananas. Pretty funny! So much joy! Chris is convinced this guy called him cute... but Im pretty sure he was pointing at the ladies ;)

 Dayne speaking with this guy, telling him about Jesus. Got to pray a blessing over him.

Had dinner with a whole bunch of the team at a cool place in Yokohama. Ended up holding and joining hands with two tables near us and praying grace together. It's defiantly the simple things in life thst are joyful! 

And tonight I ended my night at a sento. A public Japanese bath! 

You go naked. Haha so it was quite an experience! 

But it was just Pam, Sarah and I on the girls side, which was great! We shared our testimonies and spoke about God moving in our lives. Was pretty funny as we all hadn't shared our testimony naked before! Goodness. 

. 

Today was extra hard being pretty exhausted, even though God still used me- all Glory to him as it was His strength and not mine. I could of been in bed all day otherwise!  Anyway, massive day tomorrow. Keep praying as week seek to bring joy and love to the people here in Japan. God is doing BIG things, so awesome to be apart of it! 

Peace and love xxx
