Currently
The Schaeffers have lived in their new Japan home since August and have raised all the money they need for their specific outfit fund! Don and Rachel are putting in long hours of intensive language training. They are starting to build relationships with their Japanese neighbors.
Prayer Points:
Language: Pray that they would be able to effectively retain all the Japanese, written and auditory, that they are learning.
Relationships: The Schaeffers have multiple opportunities to connect with their neighborhood throughout the week, during times such as garbage drop-off and trips to the park. Pray for good connections, trust building, and conversation.
