Mako (age 15, L in photo) is faithful to pursue her school friends with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Last weekend 2 of her friends (pictured) believed in Jesus & are now being discipled. Praise God! Please pray for their faith to grow as they will most likely be rejected by their families and classmates. Most importantly, pray they can clearly proclaim the gospel with clarity to their friends/family before being cut off and rejected (common cost of discipleship in Japan).

Kamidate Sensei casts vision for gospel multiplication in Japan.

A few highlights from tonight’s ministry training w Pastor Toyoharu Kamidate at Grace Church Sapporo:

Vision: “We Christians in Japan must proclaim the full gospel w clarity & make multiplying disciples who start multiplying churches! Lets pray to increase Christians in Hokkaido, Japan from 0.4% to 1% and then 10%!”

“Christians aren’t responsible for Japanese to believe in Jesus. That’s God’s role. We Christians are responsible for the people of Japan to hear the full gospel w clarity! That IS our role”

“Christians, you must be bold in proclaiming the full gospel with clarity! Do what it takes to be prepared. Practice sharing with your spouse or your kids or to yourself in the mirror. We must proclaim the full gospel with clarity!”
