Happy New Year! We are excited to hit the ground running this new year as the Lord has provided us opportunities to present in several churches. For New Year’s Eve on Sunday, we had the chance to be at two different churches in North Carolina including a watch night service. This was a wonderful time as we prayed with fellow brothers and sisters in Christ as the New Year began! Additionally, this past Wednesday (the last Wednesday in 2017), the church we were with voted to start supporting us! Thank you for praying for our support.
After our meeting tomorrow, we will be heading up to Boston for the Northeast Our Generation Summit. Please pray for our safety and that the Lord will use this time to touch lives and raise up laborers for His kingdom.

From giving money to eating sticky rice cakes, New Year traditions in Japan are quite different from the United States.
