10枚の古い写真を見つけました。誰が誰か分かりますか？みんな変わったね～。
Here are 10 pics--can you identify anyone in the pictures? What do you mean, that's not fair, they're all wearing masks in the first one?
最初の写真は、みんなマスクされてる,顔が見えないって？せめて姉の里子と西野たかし先生ぐらいは、分かるでしょう？
この2番目の写真撮影の時、先生は何歳だったのかな？
My parents and the Starins (with Baptist World Missions): parents and four children are all in there too.
Daddy used his own "Birthday Banquet" as a large outreach--many folk who normally have nothing to do with church, of course came to honor Daddy. このハイランダーの食事会と女声特別賛美、覚えていますか？
The next 2 photos only GBC church members--those who've been here a while--would be able to identify. この若いお母さんたち、誰？そして、この子供たちはだれ？なつかしい・・・
Can you find Kiyo in one of the earliest pictures taken at this church? She's in blue with the ribbon down the front.
The 4 elderly ladies on the left chose my name from scripture when I was born.
そう、そう、あの具志川バプテスト教会にあったイエス様のことば：「わたしが道であり心理であり命である」。４５年前の平川教会時代でも、５０年前の古堅伝道所でも、現在の具志川教会・天願住まいでも、イエス様は、変わらないのね。
You can see by the first picture in this blog, Joycie is known as our musician. But all 3 of us were given piano lessons growing up, so Janice and I do a little piano too. Janice, in fact, is a piano teacher, and the pupil you see her instructing here has grown up to disciple others in hymnplaying in their churches.
