| | | | | | Easter Sunday was a day of celebration at Yachiyo Church as 91-year old Tomiko was baptized. Since the church’s camp 2 years ago, we have asked you to pray for her often. Her daughter and son-in-law brought her to camp for a day. She and her daughter came to the children’s ministry room
and saw our Wordless Book Bracelet craft. Her daughter, deeply concerned that her mother who had followed Buddhism all her life would want to know about Jesus, asked if Jane would explain the meaning. read more>>> by Jane and Harry Landaw |

Sadly, this includes many of the children of believers. read more>>> photo gallery>>> by David & Evangeline Kindervater |

| | | | | | | It was a joy to attend the wedding of Isamu and Michi, a lady we
had seen come to Christ last term. Her husband had abandoned her, and her son and daughter were not communicating with her. In the midst of that personal pain, Michi was hit by a car while she was walking and was told she would never walk again. Her brother, who was a seeker, asked the church family to pray for her. We began sharing the love of Jesus with her and she prayed to receive Christ the second time we visited. her in the hospital. read more>>>
