Ken and Bola Taylor, World Venture
Celebrate with us as we were together this Christmas season. It’s been 4 years since we were all in one place. We are full of joy as we enjoy each other as a family.
Anika arrived from Honolulu, Hawaii where she works as a fitness instructor/coach at BJ Penn UFC Gym. After a 3 year hiatus she is back in college taking graphic arts and Japanese.
Luke is on winter vacation from BIOLA as a Junior majoring in Public Relations. He is also a Resident Adviser for 50 underclassmen and mentoring several of them.
Victoria is 3rd year high school in Japan and is busy as varsity co-captain with her basketball team.
17 years ago, we first arrived in Japan with Anika (5 yrs), Luke (3 yrs), and Victoria who was born in Tokyo 2 months later. Time flies…
Pray that our children remain close to the Lord as they grow and mature into their own.
