Asia-Pacific Region:  Mrs. Tai Hirahara, mother of Tomo Hirahara, passed away in Japan on May 11 at the age of 92. Please pray for Tomo and Ceny Hirahara, missionaries serving in Thailand, as they mourn the passing of Tomo’s mother. Tomo is traveling to Japan to be with family and relatives and to attend his mother’s funeral. Ceny will not be able to accompany him due to visa challenges.
