Dear Friends 14 Jun I visited Shichigahama town again. I found some changes from the last time I visited. I saw weeds on the ground. And I found the new wharf beside the damaged one in the Yoshida-hama fishery harbour. I saw a new power pole with no cable. Tsunami reduced the Syobuta-hama beach and only the groundworks remained. One flying carp indicates that at least a boy had been living here. Today I had an evening worship of the college dormitory. Pastor Fujii who is the pastor of Sendai church preached a sermon. He read Psalm 102:1-17. It begins as "A prayer of an afflicted person who has grown weak and pours out a lament before the LORD". In the verse 17, the next words are written. "He will respond to the prayer of the destitute;" "he will not despise their plea." This is just the same experience we have now in such a difficult time. fromsendai
