"My name shall be great among the nations", says the Lord Almighty. (Malachi 1:11)
We continue to do what we can to bring the Good News of Jesus Christ to the Japanese people, who are still one of the most unreached people groups in the world. We live most of the time in Sapporo, a city of about 2 million people on Japan's northernmost island of Hokkaido.
Some of our current ministry includes:
* We preach at Japanese churches. There are many churches in Japan with no pastor. We are glad to fill in on Sundays. In the meantime, please pray that God will raise up more believers with a heart for full-time ministry.after our retirement.
* Miho leads and teaches a Bible study for elderly Japanese ladies.
* When in Arkansas, we minister to several Japanese residents. Please pray especially for Hiromi, a 79-year-old Japanese lady in Arkansas who is mostly believing.
Ralph's mother is in assisted living in Arkansas. We try to make extended visits a couple of times a year.
Miho's mother is in Sapporo. We were delighted by her profession of faith and baptism in 2024.
Your continued prayers and support are what sustain us as we minister after retirement. As the saying goes, "You can't retire from a calling!"
