Nozomi Church

On the 27th, we arrived in Hirosaki in the evening and were picked up by Ruth Gent and taken to Nozomi (Hope) Church, which is located a bit outside of the city center. Ruth works here as a missionary together with her husband Martin. Daniela and I spent almost two weeks here and during this time, we were able to meet many new people and hear their stories. We also had many opportunities to share our testimonies and experiences with Jesus and could also pray for some people we met here. We spent time here together with Dani, Morgan, Shirley, and her husband Joe. We also had the chance to meet two of Martin and Ruth's adopted children, Naomi and Meica.
