This weekend we had the privilege of having Zach and Esther Motts in our home. Ron and Zach both grew up in the same church in Waynesburg, Ohio. Their families have known each other for a long time. Esther was a Wesley Biblical Seminary our last year there. It was so neat to see both of them and see how God will use them in ministry to the young people of Japan.
On Saturday night we had our "get to know the Missionaries" night at our churches. We had a fun time learning more about Japan both the language and culture. The kids loved trying to use the chopsticks. Ronnie still wants to eat everything with them - he even wanted to pack them in his lunch today!
Our kids loved Zach and Esther!
We were a little worried at first when the boys started wrestling Zach...
but I think he held his own pretty well!
They all loved that Esther was willing to read to them. You know how much my kids love to read!
Esther and Maddie hit it off too!
It was a great weekend. As we prayed for them and said goodbye yesterday. Eli again said, maybe I can go with them. When I explained that they were traveling so that they could go back to Japan to serve Jesus. He was ready to go. He'd never been to Japan! Well maybe one day Jesus will call one of them to Japan!
Thanks Zach and Esther for a great time. We enjoyed having you in our home.
