Pray that Angel Preschool, and other pre-schools like Seiboen, where one church member works, would have clear Bible teaching.  Pray for the elementary, jr./sr. high schools in Shimonoseki.  Two private schools to specifically pray for are Baiko Jr./Sr. High School and Hayatomo Sr. High School.  Pray that many junior and senior high students who attend our English classes would come to the youth program on Tuesday nights.

Pray for the walk and witness of the following Christian Japanese teachers from our church:  Mrs. Nishimura, Mr. Hirata, Mrs. Funatsuki, Mr. Iwaki, Mr. Muraki, and Ms. Harada. 

Pray that God would send many Christians through the government sponsored JET Programme that hires thousands of native English speaking university graduates to teach in Japanese public schools including Shimonoseki.  Pray that God would raise up youth pastors  and various ministries that will help the church to disciple a new generation of leaders.
