What is Church?

Church is a community of people who are learning together about Jesus and his amazing love for people, then helping others do the same.

Jesus Lifehouse is full of young people who are experiencing Jesus as not a far away God, but a close God whose desire is to have deep relationship with you. We believe church should be fun and full of joy! Church is a safe place to grow and learn for all areas of life. In church you will find life-long friends, feel encouraged and learn things that will help you with school, work, friends, relationships, finances, family
and so much more.


Do I have to be a Christian?

No, every week people who are not Christians join Jesus Lifehouse. All are welcome.
Most are shocked at how fun our services are and how friendly the people are. There is never an obligation to become a Christian but if you would like to know more about God and the bible, or meet people, church is a great place to start!


What happens at a Jesus Lifehouse service?

At Jesus Lifehouse Church we love to creatively express our love for God. At a Jesus Lifehouse service there is great Christian Rock/pop music played by the Jesus Lifehouse band. All the words to the songs will be on video screens so you can sing along in both English and Japanese. Some people dance and jump around to the music. An MC will talk about upcoming events and how you can get more involved with Jesus Lifehouse, by volunteering or giving financially (giving and volunteering are not compulsory).

There is a fantastic message by a leader to encourage you. These messages are exciting, moving, and funny! Everything that happens at Jesus Lifehouse Church services is bilingual (Japanese and English) so you can understand everything.
There is a time to meet people and make friends, while eating free snacks and drinks.


Do I have to pay for anything?

No, all our church services are free! We give people an opportunity to give every week, but this is not compulsory. If it’s your first time to visit our church, we have a small present and an information card for you. Please fill in the card so that we can keep you updated about exciting church events via email.
