Update

Things are going along pretty much the same for our family. There are a few rations on groceries and bottled water is pretty scarce, but gasoline is plentiful.

Akihiro read in the newspaper about a homestay program for refugees. We offered two of our bedrooms to the cause. We don't know if anyone will come, but are praying that we can be good witnesses if we do get the privilege to host some people. Akihiro's schedule hasn't allowed him to do anything with CRASH Japan, but we have been able to gather things for Andrew to take up to the refugees.

The other day I was driving in the car and happened to listen to the radio on a Japanese station (don't get the idea that I can understand it very much) and thought it was interesting that instead of weather reports for each city it was radiation levels.

We continue to ask for prayers for the many hurting people here.

Tomoki is starting to really be able to understand things. He doesn't speak much, but he sure listens! I need to be more like that! Anyway, though we think he's terribly cute, the following posts might only be appreciated by family, but anyone is welcome to check them out too.
