I'm excited to be going this summer and look forward to witnessing the ways God is moving in Japan and hope that I might be able to be an ambassador of Christ as I travel there on a short-term trip for 2 months.
I'll be interning with a team in Nagoya, Japan.
Specifically, I'll be working with Christ Bible Institute (http://cbijapan.org/jointheteam/) whose mission is to reach Japan's next generation of leaders, training Japanese in the gospel to be bringing the good news to other Japanese. The team is led by Michael Oh, who recently has spoken at several conferences in the United States including Urbana, Desiring God, and The Gospel Coalition.
Sadly, only less than half of 1% of the population in Japan is evangelical Christian, making the Japanese one of the largest unreached peoples in the world (2nd largest in the world according to the Joshua Project http://www.joshuaproject.net/unreached.php).
Please be praying for the news of Christ to be spread and received throughout Japan.
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? (Romans 10:14 ESV)
