Video: Easter 2007 Sunday School
Hey y'all, Gabe here...
Hope you all had a blessed Easter. Steph put this short film together of the movie clips and pics I took. You can see Steph's sunday schoolers experiencing an easter egg hunt and singing during yesterday's service. I asked her to include the movie clip of her singing too (sorry though, the end of the song she sang is cut-off)

Sunday School
Hi everybody....just wanted to show you some pics of my Sunday School class. We have been having a lot of fun lately. Last weekend we had a St. Patrick's Day party. I made lime Jello for the kids and we drank melon cream soda! I think the kids had fun...I know I did. Anyways, the weather is nice and warm today. More like spring weather, unlike the last couple weeks of unseasonably cold winter weather. We are really looking forward to the cherry blossoms which should bloom a little early this year due to the warm winter. It is one of my favorite times of year because everything seems so cheerful with pink blossoms everywhere. I love when they fall too because it seems like it's raining pink butterflies or something... Anyways. Here are the pics. We love and miss you all!
and here's a few pics from a couple of weeks ago. We decorated flower pots and planted seeds.

Ecumenical Service 2007
This past Sunday our church (UCC Japanese Protestant) was the host for the annual Ecumenical service in our city. We worshiped with our local Catholic and Greek Orthodox parishes and it was a beautiful experience.
It was a real shared and collaborative experience. Our curch hosted the site this year but the actual worship service was truely an action of unity. We all sang hymns and read prayers and creeds of each tradition accompanied by a sermon given by the Priest of the Catholic church and even a chant from Genesis by the assistant priest of the Greek Orthodox church. Steph also sang Ave Maria too.
If you'd like to watch a few video clips from the service click here.

And, Steph's Sunday schoolers are still doing wonderfully!
This past Sunday's lesson was the creation story.
Steph taught it in English AND JAPANESE! She's my hero.
Below are the lyrics to the song that they learned:

Ave Maria Warm-up
Hey y'all... I'm sorry this took so long but we were finally able to load the video of Steph at the Christmas Eve service. Sorry it's so short but YouTube kept rejecting the full version because it was to long.
