Glow 2025 Impact Report

As we come to the close of 2025, we want to pause and say thank you. Your faithful generosity, prayers, and encouragement have made a lasting difference, and we are deeply grateful for your partnership with Glow International.

This year has been filled with moments that remind us why this work matters. One of the most meaningful moments was when a long-term 1:1 partner shared in our group chat that her partner of two years said she believes in Jesus. Another was when a Japanese woman’s husband joined her weekly 1:1 Bible study, and it turned into two couples studying Scripture together each week. We also witnessed one of our Glow Japan leaders launch an online youth group for teens and tweens, creating a safe space for encouragement and faith because there are so few Christian peers for them to gather with in Japan.

Each of these stories is a powerful reminder that every gift—large or small—plays a role in transforming lives and advancing God’s work. Your generosity does more than fund programs. It brings hope, healing, and the message of Christ to people who need it most. This year, we have seen spiritual growth, restored families, strengthened faith, and new seeds of faith planted—and none of this would be possible without you.

As we look toward 2026, we are excited and prayerful about what lies ahead. Our vision includes:

• Raising additional support to meet long-term ministry goals

• Launching a new “Adopt a Family” Prayer Program

• Continued growth in Glow Japan through stronger structure and team development

• Spring, Summer, and Winter mission trips to Japan

We are preparing for continued growth and greater impact, and we invite you to keep walking alongside us in this mission.

From all of us at Glow International, thank you for believing in this work. Your partnership truly matters, and we are honored to serve alongside you. May God bless you and your family abundantly in the coming year.

With Gratitude and Hope,

Naoko Uechi and Samantha Harris
