Last Sabbath was the last time for us to see Niki. She went back to Jamaica on the 20th. So we had a farewell lunch for her after worship service. Everyone gave her a short message of farewell and she made a speech. When she decided to come to Japan as an English teacher who was going to teach in public high schools, other people preferred big cities. But she prayed that she would be placed somewhere she can find a church in her town. Her prayer was listened and she came to Shunan City, where one of only two SDA churches were located in the whole Yamaguchi Prefecture.
She should be at home in Jamaica by now. On August 17th she is going to marry a man who will become a pastor soon, so she will be a pastor's wife. It's going to be a hard job, but we are sure she will be successful no matter what she does because of her strong faith. (She said she would try to be a journalist.)
We respect you and love you as a sister in Christ. So long, and best wishes, Niki.
