Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Tuesday, April 21, 2015. My friend just posted a post about repatriating. I could definitely identify with each of the things in this list. Click here. To read the original post. This is the one that has been quite convicting for me recently. When you see the place you have always called home through a different set of lenses you return to it with a different perspective. 8220;These people just don’t get it.”. You are not the first.

Shan In Japan: February 2015
http://shanaweena.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Thursday, February 26, 2015. I remember as a child knowing lent had started by the school lunch menu. Every Friday during lent the school served fish for lunch. Growing up in a baptist church, I don't remember doing much with Ash Wednesday or lent. I remember some kids from other church backgrounds gave up things like bubble gum or candy bars. I never really understood the giving something up idea. As I have progressed (I hope! As I have wo...

Shan In Japan: January 2015
http://shanaweena.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Saturday, January 24, 2015. Our church plant is coming up on an exciting milestone. We have been worshipping together in our current location for 6 years! We have had a wonderful time learning and growing together. I am thankful to God for His work in my life, in the life of His church, in the lives of the people who attend our little gathering. Wednesday, January 21, 2015. Awaiting a New Book. The sample was way too short! We all have diff...

Shan In Japan: July 2014
http://shanaweena.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Tuesday, July 1, 2014. July 1, 1967. Today, July 1, is a special day in our family. It is the day my parents said, "I do." The day they promised to spend the rest of their lives together. The day our little family took flight. Forty-seven years. My parents have had forty-seven years together as a married couple. They have had many joys, some sorrows, lots of fun, a bunch of challenges. However, grace abounded. When two people have been toge...

Gone with the Winds: March 2012
http://gonewiththewinds.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Gone with the Winds. Though we're definitely not living in the antebellum South, our lives still have some drama from time to time . . . Saturday, March 31, 2012. I was thinking of my dad a lot today, and praying for him, and remembering all the things I love about him. That led me into looking at some older pictures.and I thought I'd share these priceless shots that were taken in June, 2010, just before we returned to Asia. Aren't these just priceless pictures? Friday, March 30, 2012. Just last week the...

Shan In Japan: August 2014
http://shanaweena.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Thursday, August 28, 2014. Here and There, Part 2. Two years ago we had our first baptism at Komyo Christian Church. You can read about it here. The last Sunday of July we had a farewell party for our friend as she moves from Japan to the U.S. where she will begin her new life as a Mrs! We miss her already! However, it is also exciting to hear about how God is working in her life and how she is relying on Him for strength and wisdom each day.

Shan In Japan: October 2014
http://shanaweena.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Friday, October 31, 2014. I know I go on about nature and post pictures of nature often. I do because it is one of the main ways I connect with God. When I am in nature, surrounded by nature, I feel closer to God, like He is walking with me. I enjoy chatting with God as we walk, run, or sit together in His beautiful creation. Sunset over the canal. Sunset over the pond. Arch over a different pond. Looking up into a palm tree. Everything is ...

Shan In Japan: A little review
http://shanaweena.blogspot.com/2015/05/a-little-review.html
Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Sunday, May 10, 2015. As I was preparing for my most recent newsletter, which will be coming out soon, I was looking through pictures from the last quarter. I set aside several to use in my newsletter, however, I didn't have enough room. So, I thought I'd share some here. Our friend Shoppi sharing at our Ladies' Lunch. Even Mrs. Naka's granddaughter enjoyed the dessert! Origami fun- every other month at the nursing home behind our church.

Shan In Japan: Still Praying?
http://shanaweena.blogspot.com/2015/03/still-praying.html
Thoughts as I travel through this life as a missionary in Japan. Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Four years ago today an earthquake shook below the sea just off Japan's northeast coast. The moving earth caused the ocean to react in an enormous tsunami. That tsunami flooded a nuclear power plant. We call it a triple disaster. I am not sure we can label the disasters of that day with a number. If we did, it would be much larger than three. Those numbers are not just statistics. They are important. I am sure oth...
