MISSIONS
This month we are highlighting Jane Fischer with Converge.
Since 1993, I have been a missionary to Japan, teaching at Christian Academy in Japan. In this capacity, I teach Bible, English, and Social Studies to 8th grade international students, which provides daily opportunities to share the gospel with non-Christian students, as well as to disciple Christian students to grow in their faith walk. In addition to this work at school, I am part of a Japanese church, where I have the opportunity to disciple young Christian ladies in their faith walks. In my own neighborhood, I have been reaching out to two of my neighbors who are not yet Christians, but they are open to listening. Learn More HERE
