Christmas Eve

We had a wonderful Christmas Eve. We were invited over to Calvary Chapel Ginowan for a fabulous dinner! Turkey, Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes, Gravy, Cranberry and Sweet Deserts!!!!!!!
The Gentleman to the left of me is Chris, him and his wife are here in Okinawa with the Air Force. We spent good time together at dinner!
The Gentleman all the way to right is Yoshua, he is a local that is "Loco" about Jesus! He's serving Jesus and Growing soooo "Deeeeji!" much!!!!!!!
Masaki (not my son), the young man next to me, gave His life to the Lord a few days before Christmas Eve. We invited him to enjoy his first fellowship and Christmas dinner. I think he really enjoyed the fellowship and his first traditional American food!!! He had three full plates!!!!
He loved it!!! The Lord blessed the evening!
