Work Day 4/28

Work Day on 4/28 went great...the weather held and the 50 or so folks who volunteered their time at the camp were able to get a lot accomplished.  Cabins were painted, sand was carted to various areas and raked, the basketball court and goals were painted, the volleyball posts and all the play equipment for children were also painted.  Five more picnic tables were built and work began on the BBQ roof.  We were also able to celebrate the work of Bernie and Chiyo Wrye and heard a bit about God's call to them for work on Okinawa.  Thank you to all who took part:  Koza Baptist Church, Camp Hansen crew, Impact from Kadena and Noah Community Church.  Your work will have a lasting impact on many!!

 

   

Workday 4/21/12

Workday #1 went very well today!! We were blessed with many folks...some from Central Baptist, some from Camp Hansen and some (the Wry family) all the way from the US.  We were able to get a lot accomplished...and it was awesome that God kept the weather nice and dry until we were done today in spite of 90% predicted thundershowers.  We are thankful for the new picnic tables, the trees taken down, the windows and curtains washed, the sand that was shoveled over exposed pipes, the raking, the cleaning...the list could go on and on.  

Thank you to all who helped!!  Workday #2 will take place next Saturday (28th) and we are hoping to build a new barbeque area as well as paint all the buildings!!

Okinawa Baptist Staff

The OBC is blessed to have two very committed women working in the office.  They have many responsibilities, but a special one to them is helping with camp and some of the administrative duties.  They are the ones you speak to when you call the office to make a reservation or ask questions in English or Japanese.  Meiko Kamiya and Kazue Kinjo are ready to answer your questions and help in anyway they can!
