2008

A lot has happen in this pass year. TCJ with Simon as an intern has taken off in such a blessed way. It is a wonderful thing to see the disciples in Christ rise to the occasion to fill a position to do ministry that only a person with experience can handle. Please keep Simon in prayer as his training begins for him to become TCJ Staff.

Tetsuya, Masaki, Jinkoku all were baptised while in the program and has been faithfully seeking the Lord and keeping up with work ,studies and fellowship. It is such a blessing to see these men grow in their faith and life with Christ.

Many opportunity was given to give God Glory.
Testimony at a local High school.

I Pray and hope as word gets out people who are reluctant to seek counseling will get help through the local churches and if need be come visit TCJ.

Family reunion.
Tetsuya was united with his mother and brother . After Mrs.Hirooka's visit with her long lost son responded to her sons change, as a testimony that God is in the work of bringing healing to the whole family and not just to the individual. She has begun attending church near where she lives. Praise God...
Masaki also had a Visit from his mom and Brother. The first words out of the Brother was "I am glad to see you smile" apparently with long life of abuse people loose there smile it is a token and a privilege to be around to hear testimonies out of the family members.
To God be all Glory.
