KUJUKURI, JAPAN
Creator God, You look down and see Kujukuri, a small town located on the eastern coast of Japan. Kujukuri Beach is Japan’s second longest, as indicated by its name: “kujuku” means 99, and “ri” is an old unit of measurement. Jesus, in Kujukuri ninety-nine souls out of every 100 are still waiting to hear of the Shepherd who cares for His sheep and who gave His life for them. May the people of this town hear Your call and follow You.

If a man has 100 sheep, and one of them goes astray, won’t he leave the 99 on the hillside and go and search for the stray? Matthew 18:12
