Roger and Abi Lowther

Church Planting and Community Outreach 

Children: Aidan, Eastin, Coen, Kaizen 

As classically trained musicians, Roger and Abi Lowther felt led to use their musical talents to serve the Lord in Japan. Roger is the founder and director of Community Arts Tokyo, director of Faith & Art at Grace City Church Tokyo, and coordinator for the MAKE Collective, a global network of artists who are working in foreign missions. Some exciting highlights from the last twelve months include discipleship efforts that have resulted in the growth of Japanese artists and the baptism of a dancer named Kanako. There was also the guiding of young people into full-time missions, the installing of a new pastor at Grace City Church, the launching of the previous Japanese pastor as a missionary to Australia, and the continued publication of Roger's books. We will be hosting a worship intern from GCC at 2PC this summer! 

Prayer Requests:

• Pray for relational peace and unity with fellow overseas workers and missionaries. Pray for the Spirit's presence, humility, and healing as peace and unity are pursued.  
• Pray for health and energy levels as the stress of the past few years continues to be something to work through. 
• Pray that the Lord would continue to grow the church and that native Japanese believers would continue to be raised up to take roles of leadership in the church.
