The trip I planned (but wasn't able to go because Abi was in the hospital) for the Grace City gospel choir to head up to Ishinomaki April 29-30 was successful! They shared music with refugees at Watanoha Elementary School shelter (above) and outside Ishinomaki Christ Church (below), which serves as a distribution center for people in the neighborhood. During the tsunami, this church was almost completely submerged under water. After the work of many volunteers, the grounds were cleared and the mud was washed away to make the building usable for worship and for the surrounding community.
