Hi there! My name is Tadao. I’m passionate about the outdoors, snowboarding, lifting weights, and playing guitar. But more than anything, I’m passionate about sharing God’s love with the nations. I can still vividly remember when God first placed this calling on my heart. I was about twelve years old at a youth group altar call when I felt a clear burden for the least reached — the unreached tribes in India, the homeless in America, and those facing persecution in places like North Korea. Wherever people are forgotten or overlooked, that's where I’ve always wanted to be.
Ministry Plans
While I am still seeking clarity on the specific country where I will serve long-term, my heart is set on using business as a powerful tool for ministry. Establishing a business will allow me to build trust within the community, develop meaningful relationships, and create opportunities to share the love of Christ in everyday interactions. My vision is to integrate faith into the very fabric of my work, creating a space where seeds of hope and truth can be planted and nurtured.
I will also be doing a monthly update letter for anyone who is interested in staying up-to-date with my ministry.
I’m currently serving on staff with YWAM in Colorado Springs, a missions organization dedicated to sharing the love of Jesus and making disciples of all nations. I believe God is calling me to eventually move to a Muslim nation to share the gospel and build meaningful relationships within the community. This journey will involve living cross-culturally, learning new languages, and relying on God's guidance to plant seeds of faith in unexpected ways. None of this would be possible without the prayer and financial support of people who believe in the mission God has placed on my heart. If you feel led, please consider partnering with me in this calling.
