Praise the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
I sincerely thank you for your faithful prayers and generous support.
Here in Virginia, the cherry blossoms are now in full bloom, and it feels as if I am
back in Japan. I was not able to see cherry blossoms in Denver or Louisiana, so being able to enjoy them here brings me great joy.
I am also grateful to share that I received second place in the documentary category at the Hakuba Christian Film Festival. This has been a great encouragement to me.
I feel led to continue creating a series of short documentary videos about the “Lost Ten Tribes,” and I hope to keep working on this project going forward.
Recently, we discovered that there are two Japanese people at my husband’s workplace. My husband kindly spoke to them and said, “My wife is Japanese and is looking to make friends – would you be willing to connect with her?” They graciously accepted, and I soon received messages from them.
Through this connection, I have been blessed to build friendships with about five Japanese individuals. In particular, one of them showed interest in my volunteer work and has now joined me in serving at a Jewish community center.
I thank God for these new relationships, and I would greatly appreciate your prayers for the salvation of these Japanese friends.
<Prayer Requests>
1.That I may listen to God and faithfully follow His will
2.For meaningful connections with the Japanese community in Virginia according to God’s purpose

5.For balance between my work and church responsibilities
6.For financial provision
