How exciting 
Have a safe trip and enjoy the blessings you'll experience doing the Lord's work. We'll all be anxiously awaiting your return home. I pray you reach many hearts 
Warm Christian love,

Have a wonderful trip, Hitomi!
I've noticed that the Lord speaks when we don't, but it's no rule. Allow the spirit to speak through you, if opportunity presents. Enjoy the sunshine and the beaches. Okey is a great place!

My best to you too Joyful--May you have a Wonderful trip and many blessings--love--wolfie
Thank you everyone for your support and prayers.
I don't have any Christian relatives. I talked to my brother and his family about Jesus that Jesus is all about love. My brother is an alcoholic and is very sensitive about love because it involves a lot of giving part. He is unable to give much mentally and physically to anyone because of his addiction. All he can do is to rely on everyone else to support him. I guess he does not want to hear anything about Jesus and last time he sensed I was going to talk about Jesus, he kicked me out of his house. Luckily I have a kind cousin and his family who have been helping me in many ways even though they are not christians. He took me to his house for lodging and that's where I will be staying this time.
love, hitomi
you are very brave Hitomi--I think you will be blessed in ways you can't imagine and experience things that will change your life--I will be looking forward to hearing of your trip when you return..xxxxxxx wolfie
thank you wolfie,
It is so sad that even though there are relatively many churches and christians there I have to rely on kind non-belivers for support of my mission. I cannot find any christian who are willing to help me because I am not JW and not trinitarian.

I would like to share this episode.
When I visited Okinawan baptist church, the pastor was bashing JW saying they are cult because they are non-trinitarians. Later on I had the chance to talk to him and told him I am non-trinitarian. then many elders came to me one by one saying how wrong I was for being non-trinitarian. when they realized they cannot convince to their way they refused to cooperate with me in getting the New testament to give away for evangelizm. So I went to American Baptists asking for cooperation getting the new testaments. Okinawan church informed them that I am non-trinitarian so not to cooperate with me. So naturally I got shunned by them too. I felt so disgusted with thier narrow-minded christian practice.
Hi Joyful,
It is very true that religion has done as much if not more to separate people than anything else. I was having new tires put on my jeep some time ago and reading a book called ''Spiritual roots in human relationships'' by Stephen Covey while I was waiting when a gentleman started asking me questions about it--as we talked he then told me the Mormon's are a cult (the author of this book is Mormon) and talking a little deeper he told me Jehovah's Witnesses are a cult too...he is a Baptist preacher and has no respect or validation for any other faith but his own. Later I learned the Catholics do not even recognize Jehovah's Witnesses as being legitimately baptized --and on and on it goes. I have realized in the last few years why my own father was so against organized religion and saw nothing but hypocrisy in it. But we know Jesus is with the individual and that makes All the difference--I believe you will have Bibles to give to those you want to give them to and that help will come as you go along your way--and I wish you many blessings in this journey--
I found out all I have to do is to order as many as I want at Christain book store. The store is operated by baptists but they dont care if I am trinitarian or not, as long as I pay for it.
