Who We Are
Konnichiwa! We are The Ward Family: Tyler, Bre, and Jubilee. We love coffee, music, hiking and camping, and playing Dance Dance Revolution at Round 1 arcades! We are called to introduce the people of Japan to Jesus, the Creator of the universe, through prayer, music, the word, and the gifts and passions he has given us. We are currently in transition to moving to Japan full time, and just completed a 3 month language and culture school the end of 2025. Now we are beyond excited to return to Japan for a ministry/refining vision trip this June of 2026 to continue to build upon relationships we formed through our school, both with other missionaries and locals. From there, we are trusting God to lead us to minister and share the gospel in rural Japan!
Who We Serve
We have heard God’s heart and said “yes” to the call of bringing the Gospel message of Jesus to the people of Japan. Japan is a vastly unreached nation with less than 2% of the population being Christian. With the highest suicide rate in the world, the decline of child birth, a high value of performance based worth, brokenness from natural disasters and the devastation of nuclear warfare, the Japanese people are in need of hope. We desire to reach them through relational, incarnational ministry. In the future, we have dreams of opening a coffee roasting language cafe and raising up Japanese believers to step out into the mission field God is calling them to. Coupled with intercessory prayer and worship, we have a vision to see the harvest in Japan come to fruition and to witness the love of Jesus change lives.
