Tokyo Raiders : Day Three

Tokyo Raiders began Day Three with the usual worship and word, but we particularly asked God to grant us ALL to see miracles today in Tokyo. So carrying the theme of 'miracles', we set off once again to raid the streets with love and friendship! =)


.:Miracle:. at Takanawa Community Centre

The magic show by the Magic of Lawrence and Priscilla was a treat both for the Japanese friends who came, and also for us who went to support the community show. The whole team thought that it was a miracle when Lirong shared that he discovered today that doing Project Smile (a magic learning project) brings him so much joy exceedingly. It was something that he never expected or even asked for. What a wonderful heart to give which was thus blessed. =)

.:Miracle:. at Tokyo University of Science

When we were sharing about Magic of Love and giving out tickets at the university in the evening, we were slightly surprised that the students there were actually more friendly and open than we expected. =) An English teacher, Matt, even invited Yeang Cherng and Chee Aik into his English class and let them promote MOL with the entire class! They blessed Matt with two MOL tickets before they left the class. Such a scenerio was also beyond the plans of Yeang Cherng and Chee Aik; it was such an unexpected wonderful time of interacting with the Japanese students for them.

The adult team led by Ps Caleb, Ps Christina and Nira were at Yasukuni Shrine (near Tokyo University of Science), and they met a group of ten youths who said yes to the invitation to MOL shows right inside the shrine! A staff at this famous shrine (where the former Japan Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi made annual visits from 2001 to 2006) also accepted two MOL tickets there. =)

.:Miracle:. at Samurai Cafe

Just when the Tokyo Raiders decided to end the day with a debrief, we did not know that we were going to meet the managers of our hostel and its cafe who would be so enthusiastic to go for MOL Shows. Mr Kenta has been such a wonderful help to us in the accomodation booking; meeting him was such a delight, especially for Adele who corresponded with him. See you all at MOL! =)


Total numbers of tickets given out by Youthnet team so far = 39. We were so glad to bless the Japanese to watch Magic of Love! =)
