Neoguri Typhoon

Dear Parents of Fukuoka Mission Missionaries,

As you may know, Japan was recently hit by a typhoon of considerable size called Neoguri. When it initially hit Okinawa, it was classified as a Super Typhoon. But as it moved north towards Kyushu and mainland Japan, it dispersed and was reclassified as a tropical storm. We are very blessed to report that none of our missionaries were injured. The missionaries were all directed to stay indoors and were given additional instructions. Thank you for your concern and for your prayers.

福岡宣教師のご両親へ

もうご存じだと思いますが、日本は最近大分大きなねおぐりという台風に打たされてしまいました。最初に沖縄に打った時には超大型台風という風に呼ばれたんですが、北の方に行く途中で熱帯暴風雨になりました。怪我した宣教師がいなかったことを嬉しく報告します。宣教師は全員外に出ないように言われて他の安全になるための指示も教えられました。心配や祈りにも感謝いたします。
