One Day in Nagoya, Japan, With Amy Newsome (VIDEO)
Missionaries Wayne and Amy Newsome have been church planting in Nagoya, Japan, for over 25 years. Nagoya is a strategic place for church planting and community ministry because in contrast with much of Japan it is growing and full of young people. Amy starts this typical day with a counseling session at her office at Nisshin church, and then takes us with her around the city to get a picture of what her daily life is like.
