Kanto churches celebrate new work in Kamifukuoka!

Believers from several churches gathered today at Kamifukuoka church in Tokyo to officially celebrate it's "pre-opening." Ken and Judy Bailey, assisted by the Nomura family consisting of Osamu and Yoko Nomura, and Osamu's mother, have been in the process of founding this new work in the city of Fujimino in Tokyo for the past few months. This work has actually grown out of a years-long effort in the Shiki area. Mr. Nomura's father has also been instrumental in securing the location for the worship center. Together the Baileys and the Nomuras form the Tojo team and are excited to see God work in the Fujimino area. Please pray for this new work and for the Tojo team! Pray that the Lord will strengthen them and give them a strong testimony of His love for the Japanese people! Tokyo is a large city and it was encouraging to see members of other churches come in support of this new work. Pray that the Lord would bless the fellowship between the churches in the Tokyo area and thereby encourage His people!
