Happy and Blessed New Year! Looking out from the parking lot next to our home, we saw this glorious sunset. It never ceases to amaze me when I witness God’s beauty in nature. Since it is normally dry and clear during the winter in Yokohama, we can often view Mt. Fuji. It is a reminder for me to give thanks for the people of Japan and the beautiful country God created for them.

We also want to thank many of you for blessing us with your prayers and financial support this year! We are very blessed to be serving the Lord in Japan as your partners in ministry. We are also challenged to be faithful stewards of the gifts God has given to us. As we complete our study of Revelation this year as a family, we are encouraged that there is a time when Jesus will return. One question comes to my mind, "How will we use our 2016 for the glory of Him?" May we all dance like the sunset pointing to the One and Only Son!

May the Lord continue to richly bless you!

With Thanks and much Love,

Gordon and Lee Ann Hwang
