Reflections from the Team
Hi Friends, Here are some reflections from the team. Andrew- God was powerful. He healed us and protected us from sickness. Caitlyn- Although I didn’t have a connection with the Japanese kids, it was really easy to connect and interact with them. We have to come back and see the next part of the story […]
Kid’s Camp Day 2
Hi Friends, This morning, we started off with a brief talk with the Kids camp leaders to help them institute some discipline with the kids. They’re having a lot of fun, but needed to know that they need to sit still and listen during the Bible story times. And it worked! The kids were more […]
Kid’s Camp Day 1

We’re trying to teach 5 days of crafts, games, Bible stories, English translation, snacks, and a whole lot more into just 2 and […]
Sunday at Hope International Fellowship
Hi Friends, So, Sunday, we had a blast. It was really busy, but God blessed everyone who attended. It started in the morning prayer meeting. We arrived early enough to open up the church with Pastor Dennis and Kaku. The gang went to setup for Promiseland and I went to the morning prayer meeting. I […]
The First Weekend
Hi Friends, Let me see if I can summarize what we’ve done this first few days we’ve been here in Shizuoka. The day after the team arrived, we prepared a wonderful Hawaiian Luau dinner and brief program. And all glory goes to God. Ryan, our last minute addition to the team when another Father-Son pair […]
Pictures from Horizon Church…
Hi Friends, Pastor Watanabe just sent us this link to pictures. These were taken at Horizon Church in Machida and Setagaya. These are some pictures of my time with Pastor Dean Fujishima and Wayne Nakamura. We had a wonderful time partnering with God to bring healing, deliverance, freedom, and God’s Kingdom to the wonderful people […]

More Lord!
Hi Friends, Yes, God is alive and well in Japan. Yesterday (Wednesday morning) I was asked to minister at Yokohama Grace Bible Church. I felt the Lord really wanted me to honor the pastors and the church because the presence of God is so strong at the church. When I was there the day before […]
He showed up again!
Hi Friends, Yes, God showed up again. I ministered at New Life Chapel in Okinawa. I have never felt the presence of the Holy Spirit so strong in Japan before. It was a wonderful time of ministry. I had the privilege of giving a message about honor and ordinary ministers. Then we just asked the […]
Okinawa Commissioned
Hi Friends, Here’s a couple of pictures from my time in Okinawa. God is really showing up here in a powerful way! Saturday was a commissioning service to formally commission every person as a “marketplace minister”. It’s so biblical, one wonders why we don’t do this all the time. We had a time of prayer […]
Wednesday-Friday
Hi Friends, Sorry, I haven’t been posting. We’ve been getting home late and I’m just tired. Thanks for all the prayers though. We’ve been seeing some great open doors. Wed. was divide and conquer day. We split up into 3 groups doing various activities throughout the day. I went with Brad & Sean to an […]
Prayer is powerful…
Hi Friends, Melissa has a super cool story to share today… Pastor Glen, our partner in Japan asked us to visit coffee shops to make new friends for the Grace Tokyo Church. Accordingly, I went to a coffee shop near the university, ordered my drink and sat down at an open table. I started praying […]
