午後7時半から聖書朗読が始まり、ティモシー、ひより、あかり、
あかりは、神の言葉を信じることの大切さを学びました。
トーマスは、
ティモシーは、
エミリは、アラム人がサマリアに連れてこられたとき、
私は、ハンセン病患者が福音を他の人々と分かち合ったように、
We started reading at 7:30 pm, and the participants were Timothy, Hiyori, Akari, Emiri, Tomas, and Seiyu. We read 2 Kings 6 and 7, and Hiyori learned that it’s important for her to share the good news with others and not keep it to herself, like how the 4 lepers decided to share the news about food and supplies the Syrian army left. She also shared that it’s time for her to do good for others by sharing the good news. On Friday, she went to Juri and Minori’s concert, and she shared that Minori sang with a choir and Juri played ukulele. She said the concert was interesting.
Akari learned about the importance of believing the word of God. She shared that it’s important for her to fully believe and accept the words she hears from Masami-sensei and the sermons. She shared that she saw friends from high school, and they played volleyball at the park. She shared that it was interesting hearing about the different college systems, as her friends all go to different colleges.
Tomas learned that it’s important for him to share God’s word with the people around him. He shared that this week he had his last concert for orchestra and that he performed for two elementary schools. He also talked about how his dad shared about the piano concert and the church during his concert.
Timothy learned that what’s occurring spiritually is different from what we see and that it’s important for him to keep in mind that God is with him and protecting him. He also learned that it’s important for him to consider what the Bible says.
Emiri learned that when the Arameans were brought to Samaria, Elisha didn’t have them killed, and instead he gave them food and water. Through this, she learned that God is merciful and provides for us. Regarding her week, she shared that she had a presentation on Trump’s tariffs. She also shared that the presentation came with a game, and it was fun to see the different games that her classmates prepared along with their presentations.
I learned that God wants us to share our blessings with others, like how the lepers shared the good news with others. I learned that he wants us to use the blessings he granted us for others, like using a house that God gave you to provide hospitality for others.
