After being deployed to Japan as a missionary in 2016, part of Ana’s first two years were spent helping with Summer English camps for elementary kids, high school students, and adults at Okutama Bible Chalet  and  VBS at Tachikawa Ekimae Kyoukai (SEND planted Church in Tokyo). She then joined the church-planting team  at Tokorozawa Megumi Kyoukai (TMK) in 2018.  Evangelism and discipleship among women have been central to her ministry in Japan. Through English outreach, women's ministry, and hospitality—such as cooking with young moms—she had  sought to build relationships, share the gospel, and nurture spiritual growth. From one-on-one discipleship to small group connections, she has seen God open hearts and draw women to Christ. Her prayer is for deepened commitment and new opportunities to reach and equip Japanese and Filipino women for His glory.
