On January 2nd, at the Live Church Sunza in Hamamatsu City, the event “WORSHIP FESTIVAL” featured performances by Hoshina, Come&Worship, and Sara Maeda with Family Band. Hoshina, filled with joy at finally standing on the main stage, shared testimonies of healing and presented gospel enka songs such as “Than Than Thanks,” receiving a tremendous applause and cheers from the audience.

Come&Worship’s participation in this event, which opened through an encounter with the worship pastor of the same church during a gospel festival held in Okinawa in November, featured four original gospel songs. The impactful moment when everyone raised their hands and worshipped together during “Give Glory to Our God” left a lasting impression.

In Pastor David Maeda’s newly composed song, “Happy New Year YOKOSUKA,” approximately 1,000 enthusiastic audience members joined in singing, creating a greatly blessed moment.
