A Creative Beginning
Our creative business and love of travel introduced us to Japan and its people. Through photography, storytelling, and relationships, God began preparing our hearts for something bigger.
Survey Trips to Japan
Multiple survey trips deepened our conviction and confirmed the need. We saw so many without hope—and God gave us a clear burden to be part of the solution.
Preparing for Long-Term Work
We are preparing to relocate to Yamanashi Prefecture in May 2027 to plant relationships, lead Bible studies, and support faithful gospel work for years to come.
