"Pray for me!"


...was probably what Bob was thinking when he was eating this "sazae"--Japanese conch--during a recent visit to the Tokyo bay area (Barb looks like she could have handled it though, huh). Bob is a volunteer with American Baptist Churches Board of International Ministries who travels the globe to provide pastoral care to missionaries and their families. He also trains in prayer ministry.

He and his wife, Barb, were on their way back from Thailand and were able to spend a few days with us in Japan. While here, he got to meet a few other mission colleagues and to lead a seminar in prayer ministry with pastors in the Japan Baptist Union. Lots of hard work, mixed in with all this fun!

He also did a great job entertaining our kids with his crazy Italian, NEW JERSEY accent--"Woada--can I get a glass a woada please!"

Take a moment to lift up a prayer for the Santillis as they continue to serve in ministry around the world!
