This past week, we looked inside the warehouse we are trying to rent along with our realtor and the building architect. Although the previous renters technically have their contract until the end of April, they had already moved all their stuff out before we got there. This allowed us (especially the architect) to get a better idea of what we are working with. We are currently waiting for a second estimate from the architect.
Additionally, we offered the third internship position to a third young man, and he accepted. Thank you for continuing to pray for the summer internship that we will be hosting!

It’s not uncommon for strawberries to be sold in the chilly winter months here in Japan. In fact, some people associate strawberries with the winter especially since strawberries adorn “Christmas cakes” which are commonly seen during December. The New York Times recently did an interesting piece on how these winter strawberries are made and you can check it out in this article.
