Arthur continues on his visit to Japan which he is enjoying very much. He has visited the cities of Tokyo, Kamakura, Enoshima, Kawaguchi, Hakone and Osaka. Tomorrow he will be travelling on one of the famous Japanese 'Bullet Trains' (see below) which are punctual, safe and go at speeds up to 320 kph.
29% of Brazilians between 15 and 64 years of age have difficulty understanding a simple text or doing a simple sum. 7% of these can't even read simple words or phone numbers. These statistics show a worsening of illiteracy over the past 16 years.
Yesterday we had a wonderful meeting with Antonio and Joselita Gelsheuchter and Pastor Lindon Carlos and his wife Vanea from Imaculada. Joselita presents our radio programme at Imaculada which is going very well. Antonio and Joselita are an excellent pair of workers in the work of the Lord.
Last night I spoke at the Men's Fellowship on the subject of mercy which we need from God and which we need to show to others. Numbers were down but it was a nice meeting.
