A few hours ago, I received a call from our real estate agent. When we talked on the phone, he let me know that we were approved to rent the second location that we have been telling you about! We are on a trajectory to have everything signed and start the lease on January 15th.
Would you consider financially taking a part in this second church planting work? There are little AND big needs as we get this work off the ground. First, we need you to keep PRAYING! God has continued to answer prayers, so don’t stop now.
But friends, this happened just in time for giving Tuesday. Do you think that is a coincidence? I don’t.
Would you consider helping get the Gospel out on this Giving Tuesday? We are now raising $40,000 (or approximately $1700/month for 24 months) to offset the costs of running a second location. This will help cover setup fees, monthly rent, parking fees, promotional costs, and basic furnishings and allow make sure we can go forward at this location for the next 24 months in another part of the city.
Here is a 90 second explainer video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21yNG9dJbdA
Please watch it (and share too), and then take another 90 seconds to pray about how much God would have you contribute to get the Gospel out here in Nagoya, Japan.
You can give by going to https://reachingjapan.com/give or mailing a check to Vision Baptist Missions, PO Box 647 Dawsonville, GA 30534 and mark it for the Nagoya South Church Plant.
