Joshua Jordan was born and raised in South Carolina, navigated his college years through Florida and North Carolina, and dedicated much of his 20s to living in Tokyo and Yokohama, Japan. There, he collaborated with the American Chamber of Commerce and engaged in building church communities and groups initiatives with Hillsong & Lifehouse church.

His wife, Royce Jordan, born in the Philippines and raised in Japan, is now "adulting" in America, where she raises her three kids with Joshua -- Liam, Rei, and Noah. Fluent in three cultures and languages, Royce's background provides a unique perspective on faith, community, and family life for Action Church.

Today, Pastor Joshua leads Action Church with a vision deeply influenced by his experiences of faith across the globe. His journey from the business world back to pastoral ministry reflects a commitment to service and community empowerment.

The Jordan family strives to live out the gospel in ways that invite all to partake in the transformative power of Christ’s love, fostering an environment that inspires spiritual growth and community engagement.

Brandon Sato is the Pastor of Action Church Tokyo. Born in Hawaii and raised in Hiroshima, Brandon’s journey to faith began at age 15 during a visit to his uncle in South Carolina. It was there that he heard the gospel for the first time—a moment that forever changed his life and planted a deep calling to share Christ with the people of Japan.

At 19, he moved to Tokyo, facing immense challenges, including homelessness. One night, while crying out to God from the rooftop of a tall building, Brandon experienced a turning point. Shortly after, he found a welcoming church community that nurtured his faith and passion for ministry. Over the years, he served as a pastor and was instrumental in helping to launch Hillsong Tokyo in 2019.

Brandon and his wife, Samantha, have been married for 13 years and are proud parents to two amazing children. Together, they are on a mission to share the love and hope of Jesus with the 99% of Japanese people who have yet to encounter the good news.
