Behind the scenes at Tokyo Marunouchi Partnership (TMP) — Ministry introduction video・Brochure creation

The vision of TMP is to be a partnership for the gospel in Marunouchi. We long to see city-workers partnering together in speaking of Jesus with friends and colleagues, encouraging each other in their work and life, and partnering together to see Bible-teaching servant-leaders trained up. There is much to pray for. To this end, we were finally able to shoot a video in mid-July in order to help introduce the TMP ministry to others. We planned to do the shoot in April, but were forced to postpone due to Coronavirus, which made it difficult to gather in person. But after a delay of three months, and with the help of many people, we were finally able to produce the video. We thank the LORD. Video and lighting equipment was packed into the small TMP office, and soundproof boards put in place, enabling us to record the narration and footage for the video, and do a photoshoot. Thierry (TMP Senior Partner) became a news reporter for the day, the TMP board members became great actors and actresses, and the staff members served as assistant directors. Thankfully, we were able to show the final video at a vision party in August on Zoom for about 30 Marunouchi workers. The video and a brochure about TMP will be put on our website, and used over the next months as we continue sharing the vision in 1-2-1 meetings, small groups, and Sunday services. We pray that these materials will be used for the Lord’s good purposes.
