Japan
Missionaries Robin & Yoko White recently posted an update on their service in Nagoya, Japan…
Hello everyone!
Since our wedding at the end of April, we have spent a lot of time preparing for the soon-to-start season of partnership development. First we took time with our friends in Japan – especially our non-Christian friends who attended our wedding. It was the first Christian ceremony many of them had ever attended. They expressed surprise at how joyful and meaningful it was. A few even told how they were impacted by what was said about the love of God. We’re thankful that this became an opportunity to witness. We pray that our marriage will continue to show Jesus’ love!
Last month we visited Thailand, for a missionary conference. It was a great time of worship, learning, praying and fellowship. It also gave Yoko the opportunity to see the larger team that serves with us across East Asia.
Last week we flew back to North America for some meetings and training at the Global Partners office. And this week, we returned to New Brunswick where we will begin to visit churches and raise financial support for our next term of service in Nagoya.
We hope to connect with many of you in person over the next few months, and would appreciate your prayers through this transition.
Thank you for your support.
Blessings, Robin & Yoko
