Senior Rest Home Ministry

Senior Rest Home. By Sarah

Our first dew days in Ityanagi we only went to preschools so I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect when we went to the senior rest home. I was expecting to sing and do our dance and I had heard from past teams that the people got a bit emotional sometimes however I wasn’t expecting how emotional it would be for myself too. Seeing the elderly people, talking to them afterwards and receiving their generous gift made me wonder if they knew Jesus Christ as their own Saviour. I don’t know where each of them were at in their own life but their experience opened my eyes even more to the Japanese culture. I thoroughly enjoyed our visit and interacting with these people who at times may not receive much attention from outsiders was very rewarding.
