Children's Christmas
December 8 was Children's Christmas Outreach Party. This
time we had a concept of a festival. In addition to that, we
had a Pinata again which is always the center of the Mexican
parties. In other words, we had a party which mixes two
cultures' best parts.

A long line of children waiting for
their turns for cotton candies

This Pinata was Super Big!!!

John Raja
On November 9, we had John Raja as our guest
speaker for our church. He is an Indian revivalist. As a
matter of fact, he was invited to a pastors' conference in
Mexico as a guest speaker before he came to Japan. So, we
saw him twice this time. It was amazing how God allowed us
to meet in this way again.

Richard Gottier's visit to Japan
We support Ebenezer Emergency Fund, whose
International director Richard Gottier has come to Japan for
the first time. Through his teaching and the fellowship with
him and his wife, we were greatly encouraged.
There was a person attending a special meeting of
EEF from Fukuoka. We are blessed to know that many people
now are receiving a vision of belssing Israel, and
especially understanding of the work of making Aliyas.
Daugher Church
Our first daughter church was born in Funabashi shi in
Chiba ken. Noda Michiko from Puebla Mexico received Jesus
first and now the church is growing by her sharing with her
colleagues at work
Now there are about 15 members gathering. Please be
praying for them.

Tour to Mexico
For 17 days since October 17th, our church staff Noboru
san and Yoichi san visited our mother church Amistad de
Puebla in Mexico. They shared in the pastors' conference,
the Bible school, and other churches.
The two of them being touched by their spiritual covering
and the flow of the Holy Spirit, they were blessed and
received the revelation from the Lord.
We are in the planning for the Youth Conference Tour
2003. There were many people gathering in the
pastors' conference.

delivery Live
Most advanced street evangelism style! Just
go to the place where people are there and play it. It does
not require technique as
Guerrilla
Live and it's worth doing it because there are always
spectators not like
Street
