Tim came to Christ in Canada through a diaspora church. God sent him to minister and make disciples in Asia for a decade. After returning to Canada, God showed him how he is to serve the Japanese in Toronto as a means of reaching the people in Japan. Tim, Regie, and their outreach team are dedicated to serving the Japanese community in the Greater Toronto Area. They do so through hospitality events, assistance for newcomers, ESL classes, and language and cultural exchange programs. In addition to these, they offer evangelistic and discipleship events to share the gospel and foster community. Tim and Regie play a key role in connecting those returning to Japan with mission workers who are there. This enables them to continue learning about Jesus and become faithful witnesses for Him. Tim also mobilizes individuals for missions through prayer initiatives and short-term trips to Japan.‍

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8 (NIV)
