JONA BETSUMIYA FLORES
Jona fell in love with serving the Lord in high school at Calvary Chapel Houston during a spring break retreat and continued to serve in and out of high school as a leader in the high school youth ministry.
He felt a calling of the Lord to go to Japan and attended Calvary Chapel Bible College Japan (CCBC Japan) not only to grow deeper in the Word but especially to serve the Lord of Japan. The calling was near to his heart because of the family he has in Japan. He quickly realized that Japan was the last stronghold of the enemy in Asia. Now Jona is continuing to serve in Japan as a youth leader, worship leader, and teacher at CCBC Japan cultivating those around him to serve to their full potential all over Japan. He desires to continue to push the next generation forward and truly serve God in all things. He has a vision for cultivating a culture that knows Jesus, especially young people in Japan through different platforms such as social media and outreaches. Jona is currently a missionary sent out and sponsored his home church, Calvary Chapel Houston. |
