Jenna Kuperus

Through a series of well-timed conversations and providential coincidences, Jenna found herself on a week-long mission trip to Aichi Prefecture, Japan, while she was a senior at Dordt University. There, she fell in love with the country’s culture, its art, its people, and most of all, the work that God was doing within it. That trip was the catalyst that brought her to consider serving in Japan as a missionary. 

After graduating from university with a degree in digital media production, Jenna began to consider God’s calling on her life to do more creative work with the church in Japan. During the summer of 2026, she participated in an MTW internship in Tokyo. There, she broadened her understanding of Japanese culture and its relationship with the Christian faith, while also using her God-given gifts as a videographer and artist to serve. Now, she will be returning to Tokyo as an 11-month intern in the fall of 2027, where she hopes to learn more about creative missions, humbly serve the church in Japan, and use her artistic spirit to guide the Japanese people to the knowledge of the gospel. Soli Deo Gloria!
