My Pray for Japan Video

by | Nov 18, 2014 | Videos

This is a video I put together a while back, that I’ve been showing at churches I’ve been visiting during Partnership Development. A look at the beautiful sights of the country I call home, and a reminder to pray for the 99% unreached.

October Prayer Letter

by | Oct 1, 2014 | Ministry News

Hi everyone,

I’m writing to you today from Massachusetts. I’ve now been on the road for almost a month. It has been tiring at times, but I’m thankful for safe travels and good times of reconnecting with supporters in Ontario and the US. As a bonus, I’ve also had the opportunity to catch up with some old friends along the way, and I even did some sight-seeing.

I’ve still got about 2 weeks left before I’ll be back at my parents’ place in New Brunswick. I’d really appreciate your continuing prayers for safe travel and effective ministry. I’m also still waiting on some paperwork I need for my visa to Japan, so please keep that matter in your prayers as well.

Meanwhile, in Japan, I’ve getting good reports on how our English ministry is continuing in my absence. Please keep my students and substitute teachers in your prayers. Also, Global Partners director Dennis Jackson will be visiting Japan later in the month to meet with our Japanese leaders and discuss our ministry there. Pray that these meetings are fruitful and will help GP build on our partnerships in Japan.

Thank you for being a part of our mission in Japan through your prayers and giving!

– Robin

September Prayer Letter

by | Sep 2, 2014 | Ministry News

Hi everyone,

I hope you’ve enjoyed your summer. For me, the past month involved lots of travel around New Brunswick as I visited 5 churches to share about our ministry in Japan. Here are some things I’m thankful for:

  • Safe travel and good ministry.
  • The chance to visit my home church on a rare Sunday off.
  • Lots of opportunities to catch up with friends and family.
  • My financial support is strong.
  • It looks like I’m on-target to return to Japan by New Years as I’d hoped.

Starting this weekend, I’m scheduled to be on the road for about 6 weeks! I’ll be visiting churches, pastors, supporters, family and friends in Ontario and the US. (You can view my ministry calendar HERE.)

Please pray with me about the following things:

  • For God’s protection for me (and the car!) as I travel.
  • That I can minister effectively at the churches I visit.
  • That I can be a blessing to the people I visit.
  • For my visa application.

Yes, I’m beginning the visa application process again. You may remember that I tried to get an extension before leaving Japan. Well, I was not able to get it because of timing issues, so I have to have a new visa before I go back at the end of the year. Please pray that it goes quickly and smoothly this time!

As always, thank you for your partnership in prayer!
