“People are searching , longing for something and jesus is exactly what they need. It was amazing and humbling to be used by the Lord, to share the message of hope with those who don’t yet know even Christ’s name.
I will remember standing at Ueno Train Station in Tokyo, while waves of people coming and going past me by the hundreds every minute. I handed out hundreds of Bible tracts. Some received them, others declined respectfully. I know of 12 people who personally prayed to receive Jesus. I am very thankful that SMI
gave me the chance to receive a scholarship through a special donor. With out it, I wouldn’t have the opportunity to go. Hope to come back to Japan.”

“The mission trip to Japan has given me God’s heart and love for the Japanese people, and a greater understanding of their desperate state without Jesus Christ. I now have a world mind-set and a passion to reach as many people as possible with the Gospel. I long to come back to help reach the UnReached, and will continue to support Japan with my monthly support so that other’s can constantly be in Japan doing evangelism, discipling, and planting new churches where none exist.”

“These eleven days in Japan proved to be very worthwhile vacation with Jesus, truly opening my eyes to the things intended for us by Him. My weakness were able to shine, and I was taken out of my comfort zone. Maybe my cousin can accompany me on another trip to Japan. Thank you SMI.”
Jonathan C “This is my fourth trip to Japan. Every year I look forward to this trip each year. Not only have I been able to reach close to 12,000 Japanese for Christ but have seen God do numerous miracles. I injured my knee seriously and the team while praying for another person, prayed for me at the same time. I was instantly healed! No more pain in my knee, and I was able to bend it without any pain at all. It was the first time I experienced something like this. This year I will be quitting my job as a computer engineer and will join SM International as a “full-time” missionary.” The trip was awesome!”
