Matt & Christina P: Japanese Disciple Making Movements

Beyond — 1-chōme-6-10 Doshōmachi, Chuo Ward, Osaka, 541-0045, Japan

What if your support could help spark a movement of Japanese people discovering Jesus—then sharing Him with their friends, families, and communities?

That’s exactly what we’re praying for—and working toward.

We’re Matt and Christina, and our family has been on mission with the Japanese since 2002. From Tokyo to Vancouver and Dallas, Southeast Asia to small-town Japan, and now the megacity of Osaka/Kobe/Kyoto, we’ve seen firsthand how God is stirring something new. And we believe the time is now.

Japan is home to the second-largest unreached people group in the world. Despite religious freedom, being a follower of Jesus in Japan often means going it alone. Social pressure to conform is intense. Many believers hide their faith—even from their own families.

But we’ve also seen the power of Jesus-centered discipleship to break through the silence.

We’re networking with and training Japanese believers using a model that goes all the way back to Jesus and His first disciples—a simple, reproducible way of living and sharing faith that leads to multiplication (Mark 4:8). We’re working toward something big:

👉 A Disciple Making Movement in Japan.

Not just programs. Not just buildings. But ordinary Japanese believers who become bold disciples... who make more disciples.

We can’t do this without partners. Will you consider praying as well as giving financially to help us move this vision forward?

God is moving. Let’s join Him—together.
