A Journey of Gratitude and Grace

Merry Christmas to Y’all!

Dear Friends and Supporters,

Our hearts are filled with gratitude and reflection.  After many meaningful years serving in Japan and the US, we will be retiring from SEND this December.  It is a bittersweet moment, but we are filled with peace, knowing that our sovereign and gracious God faithfully guides our steps past, present and future.

We want to thank you, dear friends, for your unwavering support, prayers, and encouragement throughout these years.  Some of you have partnered with us since the very beginning.  Your generosity and commitment have made a profound difference for Christ and blessed our family.  Together, we have witnessed God’s amazing work through traditional churches, house churches, nursing homes, camps, conferences and the unforgettable Tohoku earthquake relief efforts in 2011.  We are deeply grateful to the Lord and to you for each moment shared and every life touched by His Spirit.

As we step into this new chapter we look forward to what the lord has planned for us.  I, Richard, will continue as Spiritual Life Coordinator at Nathan’s school.  I also have Marketplace Chaplain opportunities at a couple of local companies.  In light of His coming may we grow ever closer to Him and to each other in these days, ready to share the love and hope of Christ wherever He has planted us.

Thank you once again for being such a vital part of our journey.

To God be the Glory!

With Love and Gratefulness,

Richard and Keri Nakamura
