Did 2010 go by quickly? Or am I getting older? Maybe a little of both?
It was a year in which ministry continued by the grace of God. I am blessed to serve with the Celebration congregation in Camarillo, supported by the leadership team of the Japanese American Christian Chapel (pictured below).
In my second job, working together with the JEMS staff has been a delight. Although I only work in the office part-time (once a week), the staff is very welcoming and helps me to meet my workload challenges.
This past year included travel to South America in January and again in July-August to continue JEMS' relationship with churches and leaders in Brazil and Paraguay.

It was a tremendous joy to spend a few days this fall visiting my daughter and her husband in Atlanta.
My how they've grown! I'm thrilled whenever my adult children are able to get together with their dad.
Will, Tracey, Brandon and Alyssa
I am grateful for your expressions of love and support through the year. May I take this opportunity to convey my warmest wishes for you and yours during the Christmas and New Year holidays. Look forward to seeing you soon!
Blessings,
John
