Church planting is just one of the many wonderful ministries through which Jesus is drawing people to himself and bringing Gospel-renewal to communities and it is the ministry we feel called to in Tokyo.
We have a passion and a vision for helping to establish more churches in Tokyo... communities of faith for Japanese to ask questions, hear from Scripture, regularly worship God, participate in the sacraments, be shepherded in the faith and be discipled into maturity in Christ. Many Japanese have never heard the hope of the Gospel nor met a Christian. Of those Japanese who have, there are very few places for them to go in Japan to learn more and/or grow in faith. We feel called to help establish such places, such communities.
Below is a video documenting a year in the life of an MTW planted church in Nagoya, Japan. On our vision trip in 2013, we visited this church and were blessed by the ministry of the Newsomes, Japanese ministers and other MTW missionaries in Nagoya. Praise the LORD for the ministry of Nisshin Christ Church in Nagoya.
