Return of the Professor!

While this may not be news to many people anymore (particularly those who check out e3missions), our dear friend, brother, and professor, Hallelujah is back on island! Hallelujah has been attending youth group since its inception, and is a real joy to be around. (His name truly suits him!) Well, a few months ago, doctors found a cancerous growth in his throat, and he went up to mainland for radiation treatments. So far so good, though there is one more round to go. Keep praying for our li'l Professor.

A short note about the nickname. He has this shirt (actually he's wearing it in the pics) that says Professor across the front. Well one day I called him "Professor" because of the shirt AND because he's really smart. He used to always wear it... but then he started to grow and it was too small for him to wear. So the shirt disappeared, and the nickname started to go the way of the shirt. But because of all the treatments and recovery, the Professor has lost a lot of weight, and with the weight loss came the resurgence of the shirt! But to make a long story short, he'll be in Okinawa for a couple of weeks, then he's heading back up to mainland for chemotherapy treatments. We believe God will do a miracle and restore him completely... let's keep him lifted up in our prayers!昨日は久しぶりにプロフェッサーに会いました！晴矢（ハレルヤ）君は本当に名前どおりです。彼と一緒にいると主をほめたたえたくてしょうがない！内地から戻って翌日に学校に来て、そして昨夜はカルバリー宜野湾のユースグループに参加しました。これから神様が彼を完全に癒して、早めに回復ができるように祈りましょう。
