Taka @ Friendship English Camp

These are some photos from the annual Friendship English Camp, an outreach put on by some churches and missionaries in a different part of our prefecture. Taka went with 4 of our youth boys and 1 girl, Megumi, who is not a Christian but sometimes comes to youth group. During camp they had morning devotions, English classes, games, small groups, and each night a Japanese pastor shared a message. Taka, always looking for a chance to tie up his boys, illustrated sin & how it entangles by tying up Ryuji, who is a strong track and field athlete. He had him run a little race against one of the missionaries who was not tied up. Guess who won... You can see Taka tying Ryuji up in one of the photos.
