Carter, Michael & Cathalain

The Carters are fully dedicated to church planting in downtown Nagoya, Japan, alongside a local Japanese church, Shiga Church. Michael is a "cooperating pastor" with the Presbyterian Church in Japan and is the lead pastor for the downtown church plant, working in conjunction with Shiga's pastor and session. The Carters also help facilitate an English outreach program, prayer meetings, Bible studies, a concert series, partner with the Bakelaars' gallery/art’s ministry, and have various responsibilities in the community.

In April 2021 the church plant launched a weekly worship service and in January 2023 officially opened. Pray as they continue to recruit a full time Japanese pastor and seek to lead this new church plant.
