I told you about how most of my parents' relatives rejected the Gospel, but how our house stands on property loaned my Dad by a cousin, Yoshiko Kawasaki. Her daughter Kazue, the rightful property owner, is only a few years older than my sisters and I are and lives about 3 mins.' walk away.

For Easter Sunday this year, Kazue agreed to come to church! Relatives from Canada were coming to Okinawa, and she wanted to meet them. Among those relatives was our cousin Paula, the daughter of my Dad's younger brother George. George had, with my Dad, spent two of his childhood years with Kazue's parents' family in the very spot where our house is now standing. It meant a lot for Paula to see where her Dad had lived.

Perhaps One Day we'll all be able to live in Eternal Dwellings by a Silver River and reminisce about the time we spoke of a little house in Tengan by the Uken River. Will you pray it will be so?
