Our vision is to Pioneer and Partner to establish Light Giving Churches in Japan.
Tell people that you are a missionary in India or Africa and they probably won't act surprised. Tell them you work in Japan and they tend to ask why!
We are excited that God is sending many new missionaries to Japan! Eunjeong and Jaenbaeg Lim arrived in Japan on September 25th 2009, sent to us from Onnuri Church in Seoul Korea.
Jaenbaeg and Eunjeong are living in Hikone, ShigaKen and are working with Megumi Church.
At the moment, most of their day is spent fulfilling the difficult task of learning Japanese, but they have also had many opportunities to share about God with their Japanese teachers, neighbors and people they meet every day.
Megumi Church - We have been very encouraged recently and have seen lots of new faces at church and other week-ly meetings. Please pray that we can get to know them and help them into the kingdom.
Ishiyama Church - In our church we have one lady, Mrs. Sasaki, who is a "shining" Christian. She got baptized last September. Pray that God will add to our church more like her, whose
lives get changed through knowing Je-sus.

This article is about my experiences in going to 'AsiaCon', WEC's regional Asia conference in October 2009, and what God taught me there.
I have been working in Otsu city, a rural area of Japan, population 320,000, 25 minutes by train outside of Kyoto city the old capital of Japan. It is mainly residential, with most of the working population in our area travelling into the bigger cities of Kyoto and Osaka for their work.
