Super Old School

Calvary Chapel started out as a bible study on Sunday nights. At that time, the Lord brought Jacob Villa, who we love like a son to this day, and Jon & Vanessa Fredriksen, who will always be our family. Jon & Jacob led worship for us.
This when God brought our first missionary, Richard Bueno. Richard was and continues to be a huge blessing to us. We are grateful to the Lord for His bringing Richard. We thankful to Livingwater for sending him out to us. Pastor Tom announced one day without Richard even knowing- he is going to Okinawa to help Rick.
The super early gang. Michiko, Susie, DeeDee, Akiko and Vanessa.
Look at Bekah! She looks like Ben with a wig on! What crack up! The good old brown van.
We had such great stories... so many tires we went through... no a/c in the hottest summer in OKinawan history!... when Lester and Aaron left the roof open and it rained all night... it became a pool... then he made Judy clean it up... when the Livingwater team accidently took the wrong brown van out of the OCSI parking lot.... ah, the history of the vehicles are just as lively as the people. God is good.
