1.　What kind of organization is New Life Ministries?

New Life Ministries, in cooperation with partner organizations, works to print and send Bibles all over the world. To do this, NLM needs support from people like you who are passionate about the literature ministry.
We also print domestically for Japanese churches, providing anything from Bibles to pamphlets to church anniversary books.

2.　Where do you send Bibles?

New Life Ministries sends Bibles to a variety of places, including economically poor countries and to minority groups, providing them with the Bible in their heart language. These are people who are unable to obtain a Bible due to government restrictions or where Bibles are completely prohibited.

3.　What are the specific activities of New Life Ministries?

NLM has 3 major projects it is engaged in on a continual basis.
Visit our CURRENT PROJECTS page for more details.

4.　How are donations used?

Donations are used to fund our three projects (the printing and shipping of Bibles domestically or internationally), as well as for upkeep on the printing machines to keep the ministry moving. Every year, we send out a report on our printing and donation information.

5.　What does New Life Ministries’ logo mean?

In this logo, the three aims of our mission are likened to a tree upheld by God’s hand and stirred by the wind of the Holy Spirit. They represent that the Bible is for EVERYBODY, it contains the message of ETERNAL LIFE, and that it is essential for EVANGELISM.

6.　Why print Bibles in Japan?

Japan has good technology, advanced printing presses, a stable manufacturing environment, freedom of religious expression, and the ability to produce unrestricted quantities of high quality Bibles. We also import paper from overseas at low cost, but the Bible paper made in Japan is especially durable and long-lasting, so the Bibles are joyfully received by those who cannot afford to buy their own.
