The Great East Japan Earthquake – God’s family

We do group living at a base camp in the disaster area. While we were there, even a married couple stayed in different tents. There are portable toilets and bathrooms so we could live comfortably but it was so cold at night that we woke up. I hadn’t exercised so much recently so I had a muscle ache. It accelerates me to go to a sport club.

However, the one who makes me forget everything is God’s families. They came from different places and churches and we spent a wonderful time together. We learned the word of God in the morning and prayed, shared, and worshiped God at night. It was a wonderful dreamy time.

There was a man whose relative was killed by the earthquake and Tsunami. I also was impressed by staff members who served with their whole strength although they were exhausted. (Later on, I found out one of them had pneumonia and 2 of them had a flu.) Young people who served devotedly gave me a dream that we can break the wall of Christian population which is 1 %.

When God’s family gets together whether it's in the devastation area, we can taste Heaven. Although the area is mass of debris, many dreams are packed in the recovery.
