This is Kirsty. I really dont know where to start. Can anybody begin to describe how good Our GOD is? I will do my best!
On Friday people from across Japan went up to Northstar to participate in the SFC Japan camp. We had about 50 campers altogether over the 3days. We rode all day on Friday, it was pretty warm so fun. From the afternoon the SFC team and the Northstar staff gave free lessons. Everyone had a really good time. Then back to Northstar. After dinner we had a limbo comp which one of the flexy-ist pastors in Japan almost won but victory was snatched from his hands by a younger man. Such is life! Then we had a really great time of worship, led by the Kyoto Church group and then Bruce gave a message. We divided into small groups and people really opened up and got a chance to evangelize. Ken-chan from Kyoto told me that in the course of his discussion group all the non-christians in his group said that they wanted to believe. Hallelujia!
Saturday was comp day, so most people went up to the mountain while a team from SFC/Northstar stayed back to set up. We had a prayer meeting half-way up the mountain after lunch, it was wonderful. The northstar staff set up a hospitality tent in the park during the afternoon and gave out flyers for the comp and tracts and free drinks. Lots of people stopped by and hung out.
I was a bit nervous when I arrived at Northstar, Ive been working on this camp and comp for over 6months and was hoping that people would come, but when I arrived everyone seemed to think that not that many people would show. But we’d been praying SO hard for months, 20riders signed up during the first 10 minutes of registration. There were 33riders who entered all together. We had a prayer room and a hospitality tent open during the whole event. The standard of the riders was pretty high. We had three heats and then a girls final and a guys final. It was such an awesome event. Between the heats and the finals everyone came inside and had dinner together, over 120 snowboarders chillin out at Northstar! It was SO cool. There were three girls in the girls final and our girl Moni won! There were 8guys in the the guys final. Dan’s son Anthony aged 12 was in the top eight, I was so proud of him. As were Northstar Patrick and Randall. The final was awesome, the guys really pulled out all the stops. As Patrick commented later, it was only by Gods grace that no one got hurt. Yep thats right we had zero injuries, its mad! So Patrick and a the park guy Masa from Norikura tied for first, but we gave it to Masa because we wanted a Japanese guy to win and Patrick graciously said he didnt care. It was cool because masa accepted his prize then gave it away in a rock, scissors, paper comp.
But here is the part you really want to hear……..after the final before we announced the results Travis gave his testimony. He was amazing, what he said was so simple and so easy to understand, and he was so laid back, totally glowing. During the testimony the girls gave out our tracts to everyone. Lots of us were praying while he was speaking. You could totally feel the presence of God working in people, later a snowboarder said to Dan “I could feel the heat” and man, they did. Everyone listened so intently, no one was not into it. These hungry hearts had never heard anything like this in their lives before. The next day one of them said that what Travis said had made so much sense to him. Then Pastor Koiwai from Matsumoto shared a little. And he said that if anyone wanted a Bible we had some to give out. Immediately two people screamed out “I want one” Tina, Dan’s wife was about to start giving them out, but she didnt even move one step because so many people descended on her to get one. We gave out a big bag full except two, and some people asked if they could get the english/japanese ones so we went inside to get more. It is a testimony to the power of prayer. Everyone around the world has supported us SO much in this way and we ourselves have prayed so hard for this event, Jesus said he would give us anything we ask for in prayer, he sure did. (thanks for all your prayers)
But!!!!! The story does not end there. Once everyone had gone home God had a special present ready for us. The Kyoto gang started singing praises in the lounge with their band and slowly almost everyone else joined them. Gods presence totally filled the room and everyone could feel waves of Gods love washing over us. I couldnt keep my eyes open I was so overwhelmed. Then Willy prayed and Bruce, travis and Patrick shared what God was speaking to them. And we all started praying in constantly changing groups. Loads of people made new commitments to the Lord and two of my own close friends got saved. We stayed up praying until 1 in the morning, there was so much joy and life and freedom. Hallelujia, Hallelujia, Hallelujia.
The next day everyone woke up with a smile on their face, and we had a great worship service, led by ken-chan from Kyoto.
I have never experienced anything like it in my life, I can only describe it by quoting Bruce “WOW”.
All glory to God forever, He is SO good. AMEN
