I didn't know when I was little that one day my stepmother would lead my uncle too to the Lord. I thought my cousin Chieko was pretty, her brother Moriyasu was good-looking, and Masako was like a kids' TV animation main character to me. I liked them--none have made professions of faith--but by this photo, it looks like I'm up to no good. Please pray; Chieko and Masako will be coming over for a meal Sunday afternoon.
