JCCT Blessed with a Special Handcrafted Cross

Brother Yabuki, a member of a sister church in the OMS Holiness Church of North America, recently presented our church with a handmade cross. Every year he makes handcrafted wooden ornaments for all the participants at the summer retreat held in Santa Barbara. This year he made a wooden ornament with the Japanese word for "Love," last year one that had the phrase "GOD IS LOVE, and the year before "GOD IS GOOD.”
Since July, we have been able to rent a chapel at a Korean church for our worship service, so every Sunday we place this prayerful and loving cross on the stage and remember how Jesus died on the cross to atone for our sins, and we all join our hearts together in worshipping God. We thank the Lord for this wonderful present!
