Jeff & Katie are in the U.S. for a short furlough from July to October. Ask the Lord to go before them in their visits with supporting friends and churches, as well as in time with family. Praise God for Jeff’s Bible study at the local university; ask the Lord to bless the study of His Word, using it to bring salvation and raise up leaders for Japan. Ask the Lord to move powerfully in their ministry, the first RUF in Tokyo, and for deep relationships with students. Pray for God’s blessing on the Bible study with karate students. Pray that the Lord would bless their children, Emerie and Ezra.
