The following is a copy of an email I sent out this morning to my supporters. I share it here for those of you who aren’t on the mailing list:
Dear friends, family and supporters,
I’ve been waiting a LONG time to write this email! I received word the other day from Global Partners that my support raising is now complete!
I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to all of you who have been praying, giving, and committing to keep on giving! Not only are my financial faith promises all in, there are also over 600 people on my prayer partners list! I couldn’t have gotten this far without you, and I can’t do what God wants me to do without your continued prayer and support! So thank you for being on my team!
I’m hoping to make the trip to Nagoya, Japan sometime between Christmas and New Years day, so that I can ring in the new year there. In order for this to happen, I need two things: a visa and a plane ticket. Please pray that all the little details will be worked out on time — in God’s timing!
I’ll be sure to send out another email before take off time, but in the meantime, feel free to check out the website for the latest news and updates (www.japanlog.wordpress.com).
Thanks again and God bless you all!
Merry Christmas!

Sorry for the lack of a weekly re-cap yesterday, but I was away at a wedding. The good news is that while I was away an email was sent to me from GP HQ, officially giving me financial release to go to Japan! In other words, my support raising is complete for this term and I’m free to go to Japan as soon as possible!
Please pray that my visa application goes quickly and smoothly, that I can get a good flight at the right time for a decent price, and that I’ll get all the other little things on my to-do list done before it’s time to go. I’m still hoping to land in Nagoya in time to ring in the new year.

The paperwork I need for my visa application is finally on its way from Japan! Once I have that, I can apply for my visa, which should be a one or two week process. AND… I’m expecting word from GP this week about my support numbers, officially giving me the “go”. It’s all coming together…

It’s been quiet week in general, but a good week on the support raising front. I’ve had two churches increase their support commitments and one let me know they’re joining the team. I don’t have all the exact numbers yet, but we’re almost there! Now, as long as that paperwork I need for my visa comes in soon enough, it’s Japan by the new year!
