Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.

Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.

— Psalm 127:1

There is a time for everything,

and a season for every activity under the heavens.

A time to be born and a time to die,

a time to plant and a time to uproot.

— Ecclesiastes 3:1–2



Shalom! May the blessings of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

The first three months of “Jesus’ Anywhere Door @ Nobuko” have passed so quickly.

That long, hot summer is already behind us…and suddenly it is November 4th!

How was your summer?

For me, it was one of the hottest and longest summers ever.

Toward the end of September, I actually experienced my first “summer fatigue”!

Usually I’m the type who’s strong even in summer, so it surprised me.

To survive the heat, I ate ice cream with my mom quite often —

but my own favorite “survival ice cream” was homemade:

banana + tofu + pure cocoa.





8068 Café

Since August, I work at the café every Wednesday, and every other Saturday.

It’s a hidden gem kind of café — very quiet on weekdays during the summer.

So I was mainly helping the master when he baked bread, making coffee, and cleaning.

Since October, every Wednesday has become my “oatmeal cookie prototype day”

for the cookies we plan to sell.

On Saturdays, local neighbors and regulars started to come.

Around lunchtime, even some people who found us on Instagram showed up!

I really enjoy listening and having natural conversations with whoever comes.

One day we hosted a house church gathering.

I was able to see some sisters I’ve known since high school — precious reunion!

Adults don’t really change, do we? (in a good way!)

Instagram

Since August, I started posting for Christians on

my prophetic life coach account: “propheticlifecoach_nobuko.”

My personal account “nobukina” still exists.

But now I also create “talk reels” — where I show my face and share speaking messages.

I used to create longer YouTube teaching videos,

but now I produce 1–3 minute short reels with subtitles so people can easily watch.

I film mostly in my small room — so I’m using ring lights, a monitor, and a wireless mic.

Even though the space I can film in is tiny, God keeps giving me good ideas for angles!

From November onward, I want to start posting for non-Christians as well —

to reach hearts with encouragement and truth.

But I’m still praying about what style would be the best.

Instagram requires time and labor (shooting, editing).

I want to find a style that I can do with peace and conviction.

I’ve decided: I will create a separate account so it won’t look like “Christian-only” content.


Ministry in the Kanto Region

In August, I went to the Budokan concert of Christian artist “Kvi Baba.”

It was breathtaking to see what God is doing among Japanese young people.

On the way from the station to the venue, the whole street was filled with young people wearing T-shirts and towels printed with: “Shout Out to Jesus.”

I was not expecting that at all — I was deeply moved.

most of them are pre-believer

During the concert, you could see the cross projected on the stage,

and Kvi Baba’s MC was clearly giving glory back to God.

I was overwhelmed with tears — in a good way.

I believe this is a sign of the “Homecoming Revival” —

the sons and daughters who wandered far are coming home to the Father.

And I felt in my spirit: our generation needs to prepare as spiritual family

to welcome them — people who have completely different mindsets,

different backgrounds, and different values.

I feel much more stirred to pray for the high-schoolers and college students

who are connected to this move of God.

In September and October, I also met with God’s family several times.

We took time to really know one another, and prayed for each other.

After 30 years of ministry, I’m more convinced than ever:

Before you serve together, we need to know each other as family.

the connections between brothers and sisters create a real place to belong.

 My Dad Kenji & Mom Kazuko

Thank you for your prayers.

Both of my parents have been exposed to “church Sunday school” and “English classes at church” in the past.

So they think they already know Christianity — and don’t need it.

So at home, we are in a real “prayer evangelism” season.

I pray in front of them for their needs.

And when those prayers are answered, they experience: “Jesus is real.”

For example — recently my dad lost his glasses and couldn’t go out.

In front of him, I prayed:

“Jesus, this is Your moment. In Jesus’ Name, glasses appear.”

A few minutes later, I looked at the pile of newspapers on his desk.

I lifted the top one — and there they were!

“Dad, look! They were here! Jesus loves you — Hallelujah!”

I raised my hands celebrating.

My dad looked down, and quietly whispered, “Hallelujah.”

The Holy Spirit is working.

He touches my parents through my everyday walk with Jesus — in a way they can understand.

I give thanks and praise to the Lord who answers prayer.

Giving & Expense Report

for “Jesus’ Anywhere Door @ Nobuko”


I am so deeply grateful that I am not doing this ministry alone.

So many brothers and sisters are standing together as the family of God —

praying, giving, and believing for the “Homecoming Revival” in Japan.


I praise the Lord who has answered our prayers, and who has provided abundantly.

10% of all offerings I receive is given to a sister I ment in Kansai (west part of japan )

named “Kobe Nozomi”for overseas missions. (I do not post her real name online.)

she is powerful Japanese female missionary in Asia serving .

If you would like to personally pray for her or support her, please let me know.

This report letter will also be posted on my blog,so it will be viewable publicly.

If you would like a detailed accounting report,

please send me an email and I will send it to you personally.



July–October

Income: 517,400 yen (≈ USD 3,400)

Tithe given: 52,000 yen (≈ USD 340)

Other expenses: 157,960 yen (≈ USD 1,050)

(Instagram equipment, 8068 Café transportation & meals, Kanto ministry costs: fellowship, transportation, books, etc.)

Remaining balance calculation:

517,960 yen − 209,960 yen = 308,000 yen remaining

(≈ USD 2,030)



The invitation for monthly support by giving was originally planned for this letter —

but I will postpone that until the end of January.

Thank you for standing with me

as the Father’s House opens doors in Japan and to the nations.

I would also love to hear how you are doing.

Please feel free to share your updates with me.



Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.

Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.
