Eye on Japan

Nine more souls slipped into eternity in the immediate results of the recent earthquake in Japan. In a country where less than one percent claim Christianity, we can't help but wonder if those nine are forever without Christ. It gives us greater longing to know that those we met while in Japan would come to know the Savior while they still have the opportunity.

Pray particularly for the more than 13,000 who are now homeless. Pray that through this crisis in their lives they will come to know the Almighty God who loves them and mercifully spared their lives.

Everyone from the 2007 Team is safely home, and to the best of our knowledge, all those we served while in Japan are also safe. May God give opportunities to share the Gospel with those around them.

-for the Team,
Sharon
