Delivered from Death

This November, I received a phone call about the man "Al" who was expected to die in the emergency ward in Charlotte, NC after being hit head on by a high pressurized steel cylinder. Believe it or not the man was discharged that day! The doctors said it was a miracle. 17 fractures to the skull, a nose gone, an eye gone and his face indented, plus a piece of shrapnel that flew at estimated speed of 600 mph through the safety windows and went through his neck, just missing the main blood artery. Wow. That's why we have 24 hr prayer. I have never met the man but the man has met Jesus. 20 yrs ago he gave his life to Christ. Walking away, he got a rude awakening. May he use the rest of his life sharing what Jesus did for him. He is not out of the woods yet. Thank you for praying.

WAR! WAR! WAR! Imagine it is Dec. 7, 1941. Japanese Imperial Navy airplanes have attacked the base in Hawaii and killed thousands of Americans in a sneak attack. Some of the men & women you even know are among those living on the base at Pearl Harbor. At this point, you and I along with countless millions would plunge ourselves into the WAR effort. “Right?” At this point there was no problem with the draft, everyone was eager to sacrifice their lives for Uncle Sam. Note, that before Dec. 7th, Europe was being ripped apart for 8 years by the Axis Powers. “Come and Help Us!”, was the cry of Europe. In Asia, for 10 yrs prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor Japan was “raping and killing at will” all that stood in their way. Millions were perishing all over the world, while the American public opinion was “isolationism.” In essence, we in America had our own problems to deal with.

We were a “sleeping giant” closing our ears to the cry of death. Note, that it took the Japanese torpedoes attacking our “backyard” to push us to become “Participants” in the WAR effort. Interestingly, it was also the German U-boat submarine torpedoes that sank the passenger ship LUSITANIA during WW I that pushed the American people to come and rescue Europe. Today is Dec.7, 2008 and still “the nations rage.” Christ tells us that there will be an increase in wars and calamity. The only peace that will come to this fallen world is the return of Christ (Matthew 24:14), and Him bringing about a new Heaven and Earth.(Rev. 21). We must continue to be about our Father’s Business. Today Japan remains the largest UnReached Peoples in the World with 1,722 cities crying out to see at least 2 Christian come to each town and bring the Life Giving Salvation of Jesus Christ. There are two option for you and me, “isolationist” or “participant” At SMI there are several people ready to GO OUT, yet supplies are needed. This year close to $10,000 was offered by SMI to help people to receive support on their mission trips to Japan, in which two churches were able to be planted this year. If you are not able to “GO OUT” to the front, please help to support other’s to GO and help establish the very first church among the 1,722 towns and cities. Jesus tells us, “Today is the day of salvation,” BUT how can they hear unless they are SENT. Let’s get the job done! Please sign up down below to become a part of reaching every city for Christ. Jesus needs YOU! Thank you, Brother Dave and Dianne.

Prayer Call for All

Prayer has always been key to victory in spiritual warfare. It has been said that Jesus went aside often to pray, and during the times between prayer, He performed His miracles and defeated His enemy.

Price Breakdown for Mission to Japan

Short-Term Teams Price Breakdown

We at SM International aim to give you the highest quality mission trip at the lowest cost possible. We've compared these costs with other mission organizations and tour packages and are striving to help you gain the best experience available at a very reasonable price.

Our GOAL is to effectually use the latest training methods so that you gain confidence in sharing your faith daily, understanding unceasing prayer, fasting, spiritual warfare prayer, and seeing the hand of God work in miraculous ways. "Things that may seem impossible with men are possible with God." Daily we learn what it means to be a Commission-minded Christian (Mark 16:15-20) . We become involved in "pioneer church-planting", that you get to assist in beginning a "church' where none has been before. As Paul said, "Far be it that I would build on someone else's foundation."
