1. Thank God for his strength, wisdom, endurance, faith, and orchestrated surprises during “non-stop” April. Again a full schedule of classes, key meetings, events, and projects. Keep praying!
2. John & Elaine are off to Yamagata prefecture on May 24-29th to spend time with Mr. and Mrs. N in her parent’s home. We have been sharing the gospel with them locally for several years. As we have built this relationship, pray for natural opportunities to share Christ with them.
3. The South Kanto Church Multiplication Network is in the second year of a three year program to see each of the 6 churches daughter its own new church. Crossroad, where John & Elaine attend, is involved. Ask God for wisdom as Crossroad is developing their vision and plan for a new church.
4. John will be developing small group leaders in two churches (Crossroad and Nerima) at the beginning of June. Pray for preparations this month.
5. Former Rengo Chairman & Nerima Baptist Pastor Dr. Akira Izuta is recovering from a mild stroke and partial paralysis in his right hand. Pray for his recovery.
