91-year-old lady baptized
Enoch walked with God

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>>>

Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.” says Genesis 5:24. (NIV)

   Well, we have an Enoch, too (pictured at right). And, though he’s not 365 years old and hasn’t been “taken” by God, he HAS decided to walk with God – a difficult decision for a junior high boy in Japan.  

   If you were to visit just about any Japanese church today, you would notice something missing. Young people. Many churches have no one in their teens, twenties or even thirties. When children get to Jr. Hi, they have incredible academic pressure and cram schools and required club activities are held on Sundays. As a result, many kids who came to Sunday School through elementary school drop out and are never seen again. Sadly, this includes many of the children of believers. read more>>>

God's healing power

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>>>

Featured Resource
Bringing Back the King/ Fourfold Gospel by Keith Bailey and A.B. Simpson (Japanese Translation)

This handbook on Alliance history and thought is now available in Japanese.

“Where will I be buried when I die?” The answer in Japan holds grave consequences. It is a major detail at the forefront of all priorities when the subject of death is discussed. With ancestor worship and reincarnation woven into the minds of Japanese people, elaborate family grave sites are purchased to provide a place for descendants to continue to worship the spirits of those who die. Into this realm of Satan’s deceit, the Church in Japan has taken a stand. It’s a beautiful story of God’s glory.
