New Hope- Tokyo Japan

The Salvation Army in Japan has launched a new community ministry in its recently-constructed New Hope building in Tokyo.

Opened on Christmas Eve 2020, the building was intentionally designed with floor-to-ceiling glass windows along the front so that members of the community could see what’s happening inside, sparking curiosity and conversations.

The Salvation Army recently hosted its first Paint Night event, with the goal of connecting people through innovative programming and creative expression.

 

‘The COVID-19 pandemic has forced us to live our daily lives in a whole new way. We can’t live without person-to-person connection, but as we live this new life, many people are struggling having lost their connection with others. Through the work of New Hope building, we trust that it will be a source of comfort and connection, and a place for people seeking new encounters and inspiration.
