Missions Moment

Carson and Laura Foushee serve in partnership with the Japan Baptist Convention in Tokyo.


For their first three years as CBF field personnel, they served alongside Japan Baptist Convention churches in Kanazawa and Toyama by leading English ministries in both congregations. In 2017, they moved to Tokyo to begin full-time language study at the Naganuma School and graduated from their two-year comprehensive language course in March 2019. Last Spring, they welcomed their daughter, Ada, into their family and also began a practicum period of language learning serving alongside Tokiwadai Baptist Church.
Through this practicum period, Carson and Laura are bearing witness to Jesus Christ through regular opportunities to preach and speak in Japanese. They also continue to seek ways to use their skills in both Japanese and English to be a bridge between their local community and the church as they cultivate beloved community in the Tokyo-metro area.
