We praise the wonderful name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your precious prayers of intercession and your generous financial support.

From the Midwest to the East Coast, a wide area of the United States experienced heavy snowfall. Even here in Norfolk, where snow is rare, residents were instructed not to go out except for emergencies, and as a result, my work schedule turned into an unexpected three-day break.

In reality, however, only a small amount of snow fell late on the first night, quickly turning into rain, and the remainder of the time passed under cloudy skies.

Even so, these three days felt like a gift from God. As I have been working on video production for the Hakuba Christian Film Festival, I was able to make significant progress during this time.

Because I am working together with my American husband, explaining historical backgrounds is not always easy. However, using AI has been an immense help. In addition, by utilizing AI in video production, it has become possible to create dreamlike visuals—things that were previously beyond our reach—with much greater ease.

I continue to pray that we may faithfully move forward in this “21st-century mission” through the use of AI.

1.To pray, listen, and obey so that I may do the work according to God’s will

2.For the ministry of 21st-century missions

3.That many core church members may be raised up

4.That online membership may continue to grow more and more

5.That musicians and other servants may be provided

6.For Ms. H and her family

7.For the healing and salvation of my sister who has schizophrenia

8.For financial needs

9.For health

Wake Up Oh Sleeper” produced by Mr. Etheridge Johnson III, won the second prize in the music video category of the HAKUBA CHRISTIAN FILM FESTIVAL.
