• On August 2, 2002 Megumi and I met a really precious girl from Kiev, Ukraine while passing out tracts downtown. I spoke to her in Russian and she immediately turned around to talk to me. After a brief conversation I told her I have a special present to give her and pulled out a Russian New Testament. She was thrilled saying her own Bible is all worn out because she reads daily! Do you? Check out her picture with Megumi!

• Photos of my parents, my brother Michael, my children and some of my many uncles, aunts and cousins. Some of these are in black and white not just because they are old, but because I developed them myself in my own darkroom in the 80's.

• Pictures of Mount Fuji I took while hitchhiking. I just love to hitchhike in Japan! This is how I get to meet new people and tell them about God's love. The Japanese are a busy and hardworking people who often won't give you the time of day if you approach them with a Bible on the streets. It's much easier to share the Gospel with a person who has enough compassion to stop for a stranger and be willing to take him part way to his destination!
