He's got a Ticket to Ride...application.


Well, it's been quite a while since I've updated this site. My apologies; I tend to get caught up in everything that is happening and spend my spare time studying. Blog spot seems to have been thrown on the back burner. However, I'm putting this on the high priority list so that you all can see what is actually happening here in Okinawa.
The picture above is the paperwork that I am filling out in order to remain in Okinawa for a year. It is the application for a religious activities visa (i.e. missionary visa). I've spent the last few months becoming more and more involved in the ministries here, especially in leading worship for the Sunday and midweek services, and I, as well as the senior pastor here, feel that God wants me to stay long term and minister here in Ginowan, while being trained in pastoral ministries. It is very exciting, and very scary. It means that I will have to depend totally on God to provide for everything I will need. But where God guide, God provides. Japan needs Jesus, and I have no doubt that God will provide for His gospel to go through Japan. Please keep the ministry here in prayer as we are not only experiencing the Enemy coming against believers very intensely lately, but we are also seeing fruit from the gospel being preached.
