Supporting the Journey to Japan.

What a beautiful thing God did when He created community & it is an act of worship when we come together as one in support of each other.  I will be living in Tokyo for at least a year so I must raise $1,000 of monthly financial support (which will take care of my living expenses) & the only way I can achieve that is through prayer, the Lord, & through my friends & family!

How to participate in sending me to Japan!

I am moving to Japan, December 5, to serve in music ministry, kids' ministry, & advertising through photography at FUSE Jesus Community (a church located in Machida, Tokyo).


There are a few options of sending a donation:

• Donation by mail: mail a check with my name on a separate piece of paper (so they know who it is for); the address is:

PAZ Japan

• Donation by credit card: Gail Hodel (executive secretary of PAZ headquarters in Peoria, IL) runs credit card donations twice a month (the 10th & the 25th). If you choose to utilize this option, please call the office at (309) 263-2299, to give your credit card information (Mrs. Hodel doesn't recommend sending the information via e-mail).
