Emeth Hesed, April 29th, 2002%
Today marks the beginning of what the Japanese call Golden Week. It’s actually just Monday (today), Friday (3rd), Saturday (4th), Sunday (5th), and Monday (6th). Every year the “week” is different. And like Charlemagne’s empire which was neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire, this week is not golden nor a week.
Every year, our whole church gets together and goes on a 4 or 5-day camp away from Tokyo, a la the annual festivals in the OT. We will be “going up” to Uenohara early Wednesday morning and coming back on Saturday evening. There will be about 90 people, more than 50 children, most of whom are under age 13. I’ll be in a room with a bunch of little girls. There will be serious Bible study sessions every morning. This year’s topic is Christology. Should be interesting.
I’ll be taking my virus-free laptop and hopefully will be able to get some HTML-ing done and finish my book, too.
