Time to hear the Good News
It is quite interesting that Japanese university students have a lot of free time when compared to students in other countries. In contrast, when they graduate and start working at a company, they have less free time than any other new worker on the planet! Additionally, this is usually the time where many of them start families, adding to the busyness of life. About 2 weeks ago I had dinner with 4 Japanese students, asking them about this big change in terms of free time and they all agreed that this is true. This presents a challenge but also a major opportunity. 4 full years in a Japanese student’s life where they have free time to have coffee, barbeque, go fishing, play board games, eat meals, and most importantly HEAR THE GOOD NEWS!!! Pray for more workers to hang out and share the Good News with students, pray for us as we seek to do that while at language school.
