Now as we assess this year and our Life in Japan, we ask: what does the future hold for us,

この先 何が待ってるのでしょう？

and after all we've learned, how can we plan for it? What will come of the days ahead?

新しい生活様式の 先にあるものとは？

[Life in Japan Theme Song]

日本には 沢山良い公園があります

I find it amazing that I can live here so long and yet still come across places like this

毎日新しい発見があります

That I've been by everyday and yet didn't even know was here.

さよなら

Sayonara! Sayonara!

帰りは明日？

See you tomorrow, Daddy?

数日後

No, in a couple of days. A couple of days?!

おいで

Oh, I know — big hug.

何日？

How many days?

何日？

How many days?

何日？

How many days?

2泊3日

It's 3 days - 2 nights. I love you!

愛してるよ！

Bye! I love you!

くすぐってくれないの？

But you always tickle me! Aw, I won't be here to tickle you?

ママに電話するよ

I'll have to call mommy and say "Tickle Sarah, like this!"

さよなら

Sayonara! Sayonara!

アナはもう…

No! No! Anna Cakes!

学校だね

Everybody's heading off to school!

ママは日本語学校です

”わたしが来たのは 羊たちがいのちを得るため それも豊かに得るためです"

We read the stories of how God transformed people's lives

God has a story for your life, and it's a good one.

My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.

パパは？

(Japanese translation)

カメラ持ってるからダメ

Man it was a great day at church — I'm looking forward to getting back home

審判？

Probably eating some pizza I would think, seeing the kids. Oh yeah.
