It’s been a busy last couple of months for me filled with some time off the island.

Bridge BBQ

Bridge BBQ

So this past week we have been hosting some Japanese people for a program called Bridge. Bridge was started some 20 years ago as a way to create a bridge between Japan and Hawaii with the intent of bringing Japanese leaders here to teach them MiniChurch, church planting and church leadership.
