Trey Hillman, manager for the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters pro baseball team, gave a powerful talk on July 9th at an event sponsored by the Ebetsu Alive program. Trey is a devout Christian and is something of a celebrity among baseball fans in Japan. His team won the Japan Series last year, and it was an honor and blessing to have him speak at our event. It's estimated that over 600 people attended the event, which featured singing as well as a Q&A time with Trey. Several churches in the Ebetsu area organized the event, and were even able to make sure each of the attendees received a free copy of the book Power For Living, a popular and useful book which explains the way to salvation. Most of the attendees were not Christian, and came probably just to see Trey Hillman. But Trey's message was powerful and direct, and the Lord worked through his words. Please pray that his testimony will have a strong impact on the hearts and minds of those who attended.
