March in Japan; it’s a time of many endings and with April comes new beginnings.

The school year finishes, so it’s a time of exams, graduation ceremonies - from the littlest of children through to post graduate students. So as people all over Japan look to the future, we too as WEC Japan find ourselves also looking to the future.

Please pray for Short termers Denise and Catherine here to do research on the heart music of the Japanese.

Bee Choo will be off to Wakayama in the first week of March, leading a team of students on a study tour. Then on to Nagoya for the KGK National Conference where
about 400 students will gather from all over Japan. Do pray for stamina, strength and for a meaningful time with the students.

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.
