Man this is deffinitely a night I think i'll probably talk about years from now. Man it started off as a normal day we actually just planned the night before to go to a big pentecostal outreach here on island. Most of us have never really been to a pentecostal service but we just nwanted to go check it out. So on our way we did what every chubs missionaries do and stopped to get something to eat. We decided to stop by the local hotspar(like a 7/11 or AMPM) while unbeknownst to us there was a thrashing upstairs with a military man in a smoke shop. The man then came down stole from the hot spar harassed a couple people and then left. The Japanese really didnt know what to do when a couple of us decided to try and talk to this guy because in fact some of the guys with us new him. Next thing we know the police are showing trying to apprehend this, under drug infuence, man. Seeing he was in the military it took 3...4 of the officers to retain him, after about 10 minutes the guys ends up on the floor handcuffed and screaming. While the police tried to figure out the whole story with the rest of the crowd I went to the guy and tried talking to him and just trying to point him to Christ. Hopefully he remembered what I said when he woke up the next day in Japanese jail. While that was happening the other guys were speaking with his friend and through all the circumstances his friend rededicated his life to the Lord. After all this we still ended up going to the outreach, as late as we were, we ended going. That was just a different exerience in itself, only good thing I can say is I really liked th glowsticks:), and through out all of the night and it's experiences God just really showed us how much this island and country needs God and how much they hunger for HIs word and just need to know who He is. Keep this island in prayer and us as theres always things happen to stop us from doing God's work here, pray for these people and their lack of knowledge of who God really is.
