Lifehouse Tokyo: Recent Episodes
None
The weather has turned deliciously cold, and many shops and businesses have already put up Christmas trees, lights, and ornaments. Lifehouse Tokyo is also gearing up for the most wonderful time of the year. But wait a minute, Christmas is not just about Christmas trees, lights and Santa, is it? No, it’s much more than that – it’s all about celebrating the wonderful birth of Jesus! Why not join us as we celebrate together on any or all of the following Sundays?
Luke 2:10-11 NLT
“but the angel reassured them. ‘Don’t be afraid!’ he said. ‘I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David!’”
