We praise the wonderful name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your precious prayers of intercession and your generous financial support.

The city where we live, Norfolk, Virginia, is a Navy town. At this time of year, the battleship Wisconsin is beautifully illuminated with countless lights, shining brilliantly and creating a truly breathtaking sight.

As the promotion for the Hakuba Snellgoy Camp has begun, our video production for submission to the film festival is also moving into full swing. Through repeatedly working with AI and revising our work dozens of times, I feel that I am gradually learning how to create better prompts.

My husband and I work together on this project. I usually create the basic scenario, and my husband brings it to life through visuals. As he studies Japanese history and refers to historical images while creating the visuals, he has been very excited and deeply engaged in the process. Seeing his strong interest in the relationship between Japanese history and Israel gives me hope that this project may also capture the interest of people overseas. We are praying that we will be able to create a video that can be used and shared around the world.

At Christmas, we watched an animated film called “David.” Because animation allows expressions that are not possible in live-action films, the movie was very dynamic and deeply impressive. Both the music and the story were wonderful, and our faith was greatly strengthened through it.
