DAILY QUOTE: When we are engaged in His work we are very close to Christ. We are expending our anxiety and affections on the same objects on which His heart is set. - James Stalker (1848-1927)

STORY OF THE DAY: At the end of World War 2, General Macarthur pleaded with the church in America, "Send 1,000 missionaries to Japan immediately," promising that in one generation it could be won to Christ.

Today up to 84% of Japanese claim no personal religion. Japan statistics: 125 million people, Church membership: 545,000 (0.5% of the population), Average church attendance: 36 people.

Again the call was not heard, and today less than one percent of Japan’s population is Christian.

The words you are reading right now could be the beginning, or the confirmation of your call to the mission field at home or abroad. If not, they are definitely your call to pray that God will send laborers, to bring in the harvest.

The Japanese player had a cross on. I asked her, are you a Christian. The reply, ‘Yes’. From that moment on, I sourced Christian materials in her language for her and her family. No where in the world is without a witness for Christ. - Pastor Bob Kraft
