On April 14th, when Iran attacked Israel with drones and missiles, we received a message from Mikako-san, who resides in Israel, saying, “We were prepared in advance as well. From 11 p.m. on Saturday night, we received instructions from the IDF to stay indoors as much as possible for 48 hours. Please continue to pray for us in the future.” Then, on April 16th, it seems that they returned to their normal lives.

Also, we received a message from Susan-san (Philip-san’s daughter), saying, “We are all doing well. We couldn’t sleep on Saturday night, but we are thankful for God’s protection over Israel. All we can do is pray. We know that many Christians around the world are praying for Israel. Thank you for your prayers.”

Kichijoji J.GOSPEL FES will be held at Inogashira Park outdoor stage starting at 11:00 A.M. to 3:30 P.M. on Saturday, April 27, 2024.

Admission is free. Please come.

On the day of the event, it will also stream live on You Tube’s The Vision channel.

Gifts’ activities will be suspended.

This is because the work of religious corporation, moving to Shinagawa, acquiring land and buildings, introducing computer work into the church, and online ministry will be busy.

Pastor Yohane Akimoto, Pastor Peter Majikina, and Pastor Samuel Kasahara will take a break from praise and focus on pastoral care.

Pastor Kayano will train young people and train the orchestra’s work.

As a result, Gifts’ activities will no longer be possible.

Regarding evangelist David Urushima Hajime and brother Shion Taniguchi’s work are going as usual.

For special gatherings, Gifts may be sung only at those times.

A spiritual battle was held in Shinagawa and Shinjuku.

We will be holding a Shinagawa service next Friday starting at 10 A.M.

Accordingly, Friday service at Tokyo Antioch Church starting at 10:00 will be combined with that worship service.
