In March the borders partially opened to allow appointees who have been waiting to enter Japan (some for over a year). There is a total of 11 missionaries with 4 children who are now part of the JVENTURE family in Japan. 

Pray as they all have to adjust and transition into life and ministry in Japan. It starts with searching for appropriate housing and then the long stretch of Japanese language and culture studies.  

Pray also for our retreat at the end of April where all JVENTURE missionaries gather once a year for fellowship, worship, and spiritual refreshment. Pray for some guests and the Twin Lakes Church team coming from the USA to serve us.
