  • The Church of God Mission
    In the Summer 2014 issue of Japan Harvest magazine, the official publication of the Japan Evangelical Missionary Association (JEMA), we began publishing profiles of our member missions. This has been an ongoing process, both to assemble profiles of existing members, and gather those of new members. As a result, this current booklet is not in alphabetical order, rather in the order in which profiles were published in our magazine. As you read, please note the publishing date on the bottom of each page, and realize that for some missions their goals and activities may have changed since that time. Although most of our member missions are included in this file, it is not complete. As of this date 2017 JEMA Plenary (February 18, 2017), we have 44 member missions.

    [AJPS 9:2 (2006), pp. 220-2431 Suzuki, The Life and Ministry of Kboma Yumiyama 221 years he remained in Japan's Pentecostal circle and for more than sixty years he was in a leadership position. He was one of the few people who witnessed both the forming years of the American AG related churches in Japan before the war as well as the founding and growth of JAG after the war. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Yumiyama himself was the history of the Assemblies of God ministry in Japan. THE LIFE AND MINISTRY OF KIYOMA YUMIYAMA Yumiyama talked about his life history in lectures and interviews. AND THE FOUNDATION OF JAPAN ASSEMBLIES OF GOD We have several books commemorating Yumiyarna, which are collections of essays by his former students and colleagues. However, he never wrote nor desired to write his own autobiography.3 There are many discrepancies in the details of his account^.^ We, therefore, need to check Masakazu Suzuki them very carefully. I had the privilege of conducting two interviews with Yumiyama asking about the history of JAG. He was very open to "Father" Juergensen instructed and gave courage to this man my inquiries but at the same time he was reluctant to give detailed who could have stumbled and given up... He has carried answers to some of my questions. His answers were sometimes very great responsibility and has been a spiritual leader - a man vague and could be taken in many different ways. He told me that the chosen of God.. Whatever the future holds, we earnestly pray that the God who raised up Moses and chose Joshua history of JAG is complicated and very difficult to explain.

  • Developing a Purpose Driven Model for Todayâ•Žs Korea Evangelical
    LIBERTY THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY DEVELOPING A PURPOSE DRIVEN MODEL FOR TODAY'S KOREA EVANGELICAL HOLINESS CHURCH PASTORS-TEACHERS A Thesis Project Submitted to Libeliy Theological Seminary in paliial fulfillment of the requirements for the defo,rree DOCTOR OF MINISTRY By Seung Min Chang Lynchburg, Virginia May, 2006 Copyright 2006 Seung Min Chang All Rights Reserved 11 LIBERTY THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY THESIS PROJECT APPROVAL SHEET GRADE 111 ABSTRACT DEVELOPING A PURPOSE DRIVEN MODEL FOR TODAY'S KOREA EVANGELICAL HOLINESS CHURCH P ASTORS-TEACHERS Seung Min Chang Libeliy Theological Seminary, 2006 Mentor: Dr. Frank Schmitt This thesis is to develop a pUl1)()se driven model for the pastors-teachers of the Korea Evangelical Holiness Church. This project explains that being a pUl1)ose driven education ministry means following the biblical principles behind the movement rather than copying specific characteristics that are unique to the Saddleback Church. In that view, this paper discusses how to implement Rick Warren's paradigm in the educational setting of the KEHC that has its own theological and culhlral distinctives. Two kinds of surveys show that the denominational educat.ional needs can be effectively covered through the results of the implementation. Abstract length: 97 words. IV ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Sincere gratitude is extcnded to Dr. Frank Schmitt, director of the Doctor of Ministry program and Dr. Rod Dempsey, director of the Master of Religious Education. They read drafts of my manuscript and gave me valuable insight into better communicating this thesis. I wish to acknowledge with gratitude Danielle Gains for her assistance in the completion of this project by reading through version after version of these chapters and making innumerable comments in margins.

    Jacob H. Schiff and Japan: The Continued Friendship after the Russo-Japanese War Mina Muraoka 防衛大学校紀要（人文科学分冊） 第113輯（28.9）別刷 Jacob H. Schiff and Japan: The Continued Friendship after the Russo-Japanese War Mina Muraoka He (Schiff) may have judged the capabilities of Japan in the first instance merely from the technical point of view of a banker. But during the course of his transactions with the Japanese government, his interest in our country became deeper, his heart was touched by our national traits, and he now entertained in regard to our people a warm feeling of hope, confidence, and concern. Not only did he tender me advice on matters of immediate concern, but he was mindful of the prospective economic development of Japan, and warned me of financial difficulties that would confront us after the War. I saw in him a true friend of my country, and my personal friendship with him may be said to date from that time. ------Korekiyo Takahashi1) Introduction Korekiyo Takahashi (1854-1936) wrote the above in memory of his longtime American friend, Jacob H. Schiff (1847-1920). Schiff, an American Jewish banker, is best known for his role in the Russo-Japanese War. Born to a prominent Jewish family in Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany in 1847, he －23－ immigrated to the United States at the tender age of 18, and began working in finance. By age 38, Schiff served as the president of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., an investment bank in New York, successfully expanding it within the following two decades into the largest investment bank in the United States saved for J.P.
