Last Wednesday (June 6) we had the privilege of ministering with Pastor John Sass, his sweet wife and five children (pictured below) at Koolau Baptist Church. This is the home church of a dear friend of mine from my home church in New Castle, IN - Marilyn Kendall. So we enjoyed meeting friends of hers from her youth!
We also had the joy of renewing friendships by seeing the Inafuku family at this service. Jeremy knew Kevin Inafuku from his time at BJU. I (Alisha) was able to meet Mrs. Cheryl Inafuku (pictured below) when we ministered at their church last year. (Due due to schedule conflicts we are unable to be with their church again this year, so the Inafukus made a special effort to come to one of our services.) Cheryl is a kindred-spirit in the Lord as well as in suffering. She is in the midst of her health battles, so it was a special blessing for me to be able to see her, give her a hug and assure her of my prayers for her. To be able to say "I understand" is one of the "roses among the thorns" of my illness. If you think of it, I know Cheryl would appreciate your prayers for physical healing & endurance and spiritual strength to keep pressing on.
