Chris and Yuko Wilkins have joined the Gethsemane Leadership Training team, emphasizing pastoral training without requiring traditional seminary. They mentor leaders who, in turn, mentor others.
They are also involved in various ministries in Japan, including café Bible studies for seekers, street ministry, seminary classes, neighborhood outreach, English classes in various settings and the local Free Methodist Church. Yuko is pioneering the development of the Web of Asian Women (WAW, pronounced WOW), a network for women to encourage one another in ministry.
