Our church began in 1930 to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with the Japanese immigrants in San Diego. Now, we have Japanese and English speaking ministries. The following statement describes our mission:
³SDJCC is here to share the Good News that a dynamic relationship with Jesus Christ is the key to abundant living in today¹s world. We believe God has given us a mission to reach all people, with special resources to reach Japanese-speaking and Asian American families. We want to include anyone who desires a Christian experience flavored by our unique bi-cultural background to participate in our activities.²
The number of Christians in Japan is less than 1%, and the number of Christians with Japanese ancestry in the U.S. is really not much higher. We believe it is our responsibility to reach this unreached group of people. We do this through weekly worship services and Bible studies, and special seasonal events, done in both Japanese and English. We also have the opportunity to be in contact with the community through a weekly luncheon sponsored by the Union of Pan-Asian Communities hosted at our church. We would greatly appreciate your prayers for the salvation of the Japanese people.
