2 Meters of Kindness
Our friend "Kozy" Kidzu, a graphic designer here in Tokyo, made the following images in his spare time.
1. We are all on the same branch and that holds us together.
2. In Japan, we keep 2 meters of social-distancing rather than 6 feet. The virus is designed as two cute hedgehogs.
3. Japanese reads: "Let's connect in our distancing!"

Held In My Hands!
Two days ago, I held a copy of The Broken Leaf in my hands for the first time. As I opened the package, I had fun quoting Back to the Future. It was that classic scene when the dad in the movie opens a box of his first published book in front of his family, proudly holds up a copy, and says, "If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything!" I have been looking forward to using that line for a long time!
The Broken Leaf made it on to ArtWay's list of books for 2019!

Abi & Gospel Choir
Abi directed the gospel choir in worship today so that the usual choir director could focus on singing. It was a very festive Christmas-y service!
