The Chelashaw Family, Nairobi Kenya
We're delighted to be partners with Kip' and Rachel Chelashaw and their children, who are church planting in Kenya. As the Chelashaws' sending church, we work alongside United for Mission and a number of other churches to support them in their ministry.
You can find out more about the Chelashaws, including how to support them, at their UFM page here.
Verity Hayhow, Tokyo Japan
Verity is a mission partner with Japan Christian Link and is planning to move to Tokyo in summer 2026. She is hoping to serve with Community Arts Tokyo, a creative team using the arts to reach people in Tokyo with the gospel.
Verity spent 3 months at the beginning of 2025 with the CAT team learning about arts ministry and church life in Japan. Community Arts work across various forms of outreach: running creative events, publishing books about Christianity and Japanese culture, and supporting worship at Grace City Church Tokyo, among many other exciting things.
If you'd like to keep up with Verity's plans, you can subscribe to her newsletter.
If you're interested in partnering with Verity financially, you can do so through her appeal page on the JCL website.
