In the forums here on Mission: JAPAN, there was a discussion recently regarding outreach to the youth of Japan. The question was whether there is any response among the young people of Japan, to the message of the gospel. This video sheds some light on that question. Enjoy the video and then join us in the forums to discuss ministry in Japan!

Pray For Japan's Unchurched Cities
Many People with no Gospel Witness
A call has gone out to pray and set a goal that there would be at least one church in each of the eight unchurched cities in Japan. Let's seriously do three things:
Daily Pray
Find out and inform As we pray and get the names of these cities in our hearts, perhaps some will be led to some kind of connection to these cities -- a known Christian there, a relative, some returnee, or an existing Bible study. If we could gather this kind of information, perhaps we could network people and resources for the beginning of a Bible study or some outreach.
Go Is it unrealistic that there would be eight units ready to actually go to begin church planting? What about the possibility of missionaries and national Christians going with a gospel team or a prayer team? What about a prayer pilgrimage -- visit all 8 cities in 8 days on a special JR pass?
There are many people who frequent this site because of their interest in seeing the Japanese reached with the gospel. Some would like to learn language to whatever degree possible. Some just want to network with others of similar interest. Many would also like to have prayer requests that they can lift up in prayer.
If you are one of those who is interested in praying for the needs of Japan, you will find a valuable resource in the forums. We have added monthly prayer diaries to the Prayer Initiatives section of the Forums. They are updated each month with new info from the field, so you will have specific, fresh prayer requests to lift up to the Lord of the Harvest.
We hope you will find these a meaningful tool for your ministry of intercession. If you have any requests or suggestions, please feel free to contact us!
