Dear Friend,

The earthquake, tsunami, and ongoing nuclear threat to the people of Japan have rocked Japan. Many missionaries and believers in Japan are trusting God for a spiritual awakening among the Japanese people. "The Lord has uniquely positioned us with one of the largest and broadest networks of churches across the country," wrote J.H. of Asian Access. "We believe the Lord would have us extend the transforming power of the gospel."

WMP distributor Jerry R. has only been receiving WMP booklets. He wrote, "We thank you for the help you have granted us with Christian literature to evangelize Japan in the midst of this present crisis. We hope you will continue to help us with Japanese literature for this people who have rejected God for such a very long time." In response, World Missionary Press sent  another shipment of booklets in Japanese.

The booklet Help From Above in Japanese had been out of stock at WMP for some time. Recently it was reprinted and put into inventory. Since then, opportunity arose to partner with Feed the Hungry to get 44,000 double-size booklets in Japanese to an organization of evangelical churches working in an area hardest hit by the earthquake and tsunami. Teams are being sent out from those churches to take humanitarian aid and the Word of God into shelters and various areas where people are most affected by the devastation. We praise God that He prompted us to do that recent printing so that we had a supply to get into "the pipeline" when the opportunity suddenly arose.

WMP's production team is prepared to break into their production schedule to print the three booklets available in Japanese - Help From Above, The Power of God, and The Way to God - when requests deplete present inventory.

A pastor in Japan reported his excitement that something is happening spiritually in Japan, and the earthquake "is not for Japan’s destruction, but for Japan’s salvation."

Please pray for the people of Japan and for the fruitful distribution of God's Word.

Your friend in Christ,

Jay
