 Rev. Yukio ("Yuki") Sakiyama has been Associate Minister of JBC since June 2001. His ministry is primarily to the Nichigo (Japanese language) congregation, though he is involved in many ways with the English-speaking congregation as well. A native of Japan, Yuki was employed in business for many years in that country and in the US. His duties included providing translation between Japanese and English, a service that he also provides at JBC. As a layman in Japan, Yuki was active in church ministries including the starting of new churches. Following the death of Rev. Joe Sakakibara in 2000, Yuki agreed to serve our Nichigo congregation as an intern for one year. That experience helped to clarify Yuki's call to ministry and led him to enroll as a seminarian at Seattle University's School of Theology and Ministry. At the end of the year, JBC called him as Associate Lay Minister on a continuing basis and subsequently granted him a License to Preach in anticipation of ordination. He was ordained at JBC in 2005. |
