CMA
Returns to Japan
We are excited to
announce that CMA will be traveling to
minister in Japan for the 6th consecutive summer! Our first missions
trip to
Japan in 2005 was done out of obedience, going where the Lord told us
to go,
Japan. During that first trip we began to see first hand the desperate
need for
Jesus Christ in Japan. We saw and heard of the heartache and complete
hopelessness that leads to self inflicted pain and even death. We saw
loneliness
in beautiful faces, that were looking to be filled and sustained by
stone
statues and empty gods. Our hearts broke and the Lord began to place a
burden in
us for the Japanese to come to know their Lord and Savior, the One who
loved
them enough to die for them. With each year that passes, our passion
grows
stronger and stronger, longing for this nation to know the hope that
lies within
us. Longing for them to know Jesus.
This July-August we have
the opportunity once again to spread
true hope, life, truth and joy in Japan! This year’s ministry team will
be,
Tiffany Case, Gwen Kennicutt and Christine Rempel. God has placed a
smaller team
together this year and we are excited to see what he has in store for
us! We are
now working on setting up and planning our events for this month long
missions
trip. Currently we will be ministering in the cities of Yokohama,
Kagoshima,
Fukuoka, and Kita-Kyushu (with other locations still pending). We will
be
holding workshops for children to adults, teaching dance and telling
why we
worship our wonderful Lord. We will hold concerts sharing God’s Word
through
dance and personal testimonies. We also have the opportunity to speak
to young
girls about purity and saving themselves completely for the one God has
for
them.
Please be in prayer for
our team as we are preparing, planning
and coordinating between Japan and the US. Pray that He would lead us
to the
places He wants us and that we would be used mightily for Him this
summer! We
also need prayer for our finances as each of our team members work to
raise the
money needed for this trip. If you are interested in helping us
financially you
can talk with one of us, or email us.
