Hey everyone, we just found out this morning that an island north of us had some very bad flooding yesterday.  Amami Island is north of Okinawa, near the bottom of Kagoshima Prefecture.  The rain reached the 1896 record for most rain in one day.  Two people have died from the flooding and one person is missing.  Also, 138 elementary through middle school students were trapped at their school yesterday.  Please keep the people on Amami Island in your prayers.  And please pray that the churches on the island will be able to use this time to share Christ’s love with the people on the island.
