B. General Meeting
1. Reviewing the history and current status of SM movement in Japan
In 1999, the 1st course was held at Jesus Family Church in Osaka that was called condensed “World Mission Course,” with Rev. Ian Caro came from Philippines and facilitated the course. Linda Harding working for World Outreach helped courses. Jesus Family Church used the course for mission training.
Between 1999 and 2004, a few courses were run.
In 2005, the 3rd edition course was held in Kyushu for pastors and leaders.
Between 2005 to 2008, 3 courses were opened at Jesus Family Church for the students from Kansai and Nagoya.
In 2008, the video “Island Flame” came out, as a result of the mission effort of Jesus Family Church.
Between 2009 and 2013, Kansai Bible Institute put Kairos into its curriculum.
In 2014, Kairos course with 4th edition was held in Tokyo for once and then stopped.
2. Reporting the ministries
1) KBI
|
From 2009, KBI put Kairos into its curriculum but stopped in 2013, to begin Mosaic, another mission program. The new principal decided to resume the course. |
Rev. Ota served in Indonesia for 7 years and came to serve KBI as principal in Osaka. After he came there 3 years, his wife joined Kairos at Jesus Family Church and her feedback was very good. Rev. Ota decided to run Kairos as one of the mission courses in KBI.
Kairos seems to be tagged with Pentecost denomination, so that there is limitation for other denominations to join the course.
2) Care Ministries International Japan
|
In 2017, CMI Japan was begun. (it considered Kairos, TEE, and Perspectives for training programs.) In 2018, 1st Kairos course was facilitated by CMI in Tokyo in Mandarin. In 2019, 3 courses (2 at Tokyo, 1 at Osaka) and 1 FTC. Most of participants are churches pastors and lay leaders. |
CMI has 10 HFs, in US, New Zealand, Australia, Taiwan and CAN. There are 2 HFs in Japan: Daniel Huang and He Huang. There are Facilitators coming close to HF level, including a dentist (Ph.D.) couple. They are from Beijing, applying jobs in Japan, and speaking Japanese well.
3) Kairos Korea in Japan
|
Kairos course and FTC by Kairos Korea near Tokyo (10 graduates/FTs) in Korean language.stIn October 2018, 1 course (7 graduates) were held in Korean languagendIn August 2019, 2 |
Some of Korean missionaries in Japan asked Kairos Korea to open the course in Japan on June 2018.
Before the request, Kairos Korea tried to design a special course for Korean senior pastors in Korea. One of problems was that they are too busy to join the course. If we have Kairos in Korea, they cannot focus on the course, so that we invited them to join the course in Japan.
4) Osaka
Jo Graham serves Biwan church at Osaka.
Yoshi Yamamoto (HF, female, layperson, living at Osaka) is willing to serve Kairos. She has Japanese FT team. 3 FTs wants to serve Kairos. She has run the course once in Tokyo and found it too challenging for her to do a second one.
5) Others
There are Kairos graduates who are fluent in Japanese and Chinese at the Beijing International Church.
There are also Kairos graduates in Japan from KBI, from Dulos Hope, and with JCC in Tokyo.
3. Evaluation and suggestion on Kairos and SM ministries
|
Strength |
* good tool to mobilize Japanese churches. * fit for students. |
|
Weakness |
* it is too long for participants who were too busy to participate. * not fit for busy ministers. * FT system seem to hinder to promote the course. (We need to share all values and principle in Kairos) |
|
Suggestion |
* Shorter programs are needed. (we can introduce ETI, TUS, and Interface) * Bringing up more HFs. (There were only intensive courses because HFs were from overseas. If we have more HFs in different cities, then they can open regular courses locally.) * a special course for ministers. (If we have a course for ministers in a cozy facility with relax schedules, they could have more motivation to participate.) |
4. Plans in 2020
|
CMI & TIC |
* 2-3 courses at Tokyo and Osaka and 1 FTC are expected in Chinese. (Rev. Huang and Elder Fukui tries to set the date for Kairos in TIC) * FTC will be held from 23-25 May in Osaka. |
|
KBI |
* KBI will open Kairos in Sep. 8-12. |
|
Kairos Korea |
* In August 2020, a course is scheduled for Korean pastors in Korea and Korean missionaries in Japan. * There are opportunities to work together with Tyrannus International Mission (Korean mission organization) in Osaka |

We can open a course named “a revised edition course,” or “a refreshing course”

A Report on the Simply Mobilizing Japan NNCT Meeting
on February 12, 2020.
Date: February 12, 2020. (from 8 to 10 pm.)
Venue: TIC guest house in Sibuya, Japan
Participants: Jay Ryu (NNC), James Chak (RC), Daniel Huang (Operation Coordinator)
1) Course fee
We set 140 USD for Kairos; 40 USD for NCT royalty and 100 USD for running expenses. SM Japan would decide a reasonable fee later, after they are formed.
2) TUS
Rev. Daniel will have TUS course and evaluate it later. We focus Kairos first and try to translate TUS in the meantime. We can ask Elder Fukui to find people for TUS translation
3) Promoting SM international Conference
It was supposed to be held on September 21-25, 2020, which is now postponed to September 20-24, 2021. We try to invite people there.
4) Inviting Rev. Daniel Huang as Operation Coordinator
We want to invite Rev Huang as Operation Coordinator in SM Japan. We need to depend heavily on Elder Fukui for the running of the coming courses, in printing the Japanese Reader on demands, ordering Chinese Readers from Malaysia, possibly printing English TUS Reader on demand, and even the Korean Readers as well. However, with the limitation of his English, we would need to depend on Daniel to instruct him to do so. We asked Rev. Huang to have a responsibility formally with this role.
5) Inputting information to Course Manager Program
Jay puts information regarding the courses in Korean language to course manager soon.
