Reaching the Japanese for Christ through innovative ministries and educational communities.

Japan is an unreached nation with less than 1% of the total population having a relationship with Jesus Christ. Two of the major challenges facing the Japanese are an extremely high suicide rate, and high rates of alcoholism, gambling addictions, and sex addictions. Also, September 1st is the deadliest day of the year for students as many commit suicide rather than return to school due to cultural pressures.

Patrick leads a ministry called Roots of Redemption: A Journey of Recovery and Rediscovering the God-Given Self. Roots of Redemption is a weekly Gospel application program based on Biblical principles and Scriptural references that show us how Christ changes our lives and brings us into closer relationship with God.

Megan teaches AP calculus and physics at Christian Academy in Japan, a Christ-centered international school that has students of both missionaries and business professionals. She taught physics and math in Portland, Oregon for six years and holds a Physics degree from Montana State University.
