WELCOME
We are a protestant church based in Osaka. We place a high value on meaningful worship, rejoicing in the outrageous grace of our heavenly Father through Christ. In a stressful and lonely world, we aim to be a caring community for all generations. Currently, we gather weekly in three locations in Osaka: Honmachi, Hokusetsu, and Osaka Minami (Abiko or Nagai), as well as online via Zoom. Whether you’re new to church or have attended before, everyone is warmly welcome, so please feel free to join us!

People of all ages and from various areas of Kansai gather together in Honmachi, located between Umeda and Namba, to worship. First-time attendees often say, “Everyone was so energetic and we had such a great time!” It’s a place where, no matter your age or whether you’re Christian or not, everyone feels welcome and enjoys spending time together. Be One Honmachi streams its Sunday service at 11:00 AM every week, and we also have a Saturday service at 6:30 PM, making it easier for those who work on Sundays or live farther away to participate.
*As of September 2024, we have moved to the Senba Alpha Building.

Minami
Be One Minami, which started in March 2024, mainly holds worship services in Abiko and Nagai, with around 50 people, including children, attending each service.
Although Be One Minami is still in its early stages, people of various ages come together, and both the worship services and the time spent together afterward over meals create a warm, homey atmosphere where everyone can get to know one another.
All are welcome to join us in worship, even if you’ve never been to church before. We also provide a children’s program, so families can join freely as well.

Other Ministries
Family Camp
Once a year, the whole church gathers for a camp. It’s a fulfilling time where we study the Bible, play games, and more. Members from Be One Tohoku also participate. It’s a fun camp where we experience warm fellowship as God’s family and the joy of growing together. Every year, we have a wonderful time as a family.
Kids' Camp
We hold a Kids’ Camp twice a year, in spring and summer. The camps are focused on messages from the Bible that are easy to understand, fun English learning, and games that everyone can enjoy. All with the purpose of nurturing the hearts of children.
Men's Meeting
Men gather to spend time getting to know each other. Guys of all ages and professions come together and enjoy a great time of fellowship and worship. First-time participants are also welcome, so please feel free to contact us if you’d like to join.
Following Jesus
This is a 12-session course that teaches the first steps of faith. The content is practical, and designed so that what is learned can be passed on to others.
It’s usually done in-person, but can be done online as well!
Find the Following Jesus videos here!
Ministry School
Every Wednesday, we dive deeper into the Bible in an effort to equip each person to become a worker in the faith.

Location: Online (ZOOM)
*This is a registration-based program. If you wish to participate, please contact us through the inquiry form.
Wednesday Worship
Two to three times a month, on Wednesdays, a small group gathers together at the Shimamura household in Kitanoda. We share a meal, have discussions, sing praise, and study the Bible together. Those who are new to the Bible or those who are interested are welcome to join. If you would like to participate, please contact us by the email below. We will send you the details, including the address and schedule.

Youth Gathering
We also hold youth gatherings! Currently, we meet once a month. We get together to plan fun activities like barbecues, takoyaki parties, and chocolate fondue parties!
Missions
Be One Osaka supports overseas missionaries. We primarily support efforts in Ethiopia, Mozambique, and Shulam, as well as work with ‘unreached tribes’ where the gospel has not yet been shared. Through prayer and practical support, we hope the gospel will be spread to many people and regions.
For Those Suffering
If you are feeling that life is difficult, or meaningless, or if you don’t understand why you are alive, we have something I want to share with you. God loves you just as you are. We hope you will watch this video.
