Welcome to Be One Osaka!
We are a Christian church, meeting in the Hommachi area of downtown 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. Come and check us out. We’ll make you welcome but give you plenty of time and space to find your own level! We are a relatively new group, expanding steadily. That means that while we try to keep our website up-to-date, we sometimes miss things so before you come to a meeting, message us to confirm the details!

One Thing
One Thing is a time of fervent prayer and worship, waiting on God together and being filled again with the Holy Spirit. David’s “one thing” in Psalm 27:4 and Mary’s “one thing” in Luke 10:42 are our inspiration. The meeting is not really geared to new people – if you’ve never been in church before, you might prefer to start with the Saturday or Sunday Worship.
Sunday, 2:30-4:00 pm

Following Jesus
Following Jesus is a course of study to help people take their first steps as followers of Jesus. There are 12 lessons: Intro: The Heart of God; Step One, The Greatest Commandment; 2, Repent and believe; 3, Be baptized; 4A, Power from heaven; 4B Receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit; 5, Listen and obey; 6, Love one another; 7, Break bread; 8, Pray; 9, Give; 10, Make disciples. It’s a very practical course to help you first to learn, then to put it into practice and next to teach others what you just learned.
We hold courses anywhere and anytime, according to people’s needs and availability. (Available in English, Japanese and Chinese!)
Ministry School
Every believer is called to be a disciple and to touch others with God’s love. This school is in Japanese, and aims to equip each participant to become a worker, practicing ministry skills (for example, how to lead people to Christ, how to lead small groups and take Holy Communion) and understanding key Bible truths.
BMS (Be One Ministry School) is held in Japanese on Zoom every Wednesday 8:00-9:15pm. Attendance is open to those who have completed Following Jesus and are journeying with us as a church.
Fellowship Groups
Our vision is to multiply fellowship groups and spread the love of God all over Kansai, in many places and many different times. Many people can’t come to Hommachi at the weekend, so we take church to them, to homes, offices and campuses.
Your Children
We are passionate about helping children follow Jesus, supporting parents to raise their kids well as well as helping parents and children to worship together!
Other Ministries/Events
Family Camp
Our annual church family camp is a big event in our calendar, getting away together to study and worship, to play and to eat together! Some of our Tohoku Be One family also join us.
Youth
We have a monthly Youth program, combining teens and young adults, including social activities (board games, takoyaki party etc) as well as worship and sharing of the Word of God.
