“We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard,
so that you also may have fellowship with us.
And our fellowship is with the Father
and with His Son, ” (1 John 1: 3).
The Bridge Fellowship is a Protestant Christian, gospel-centered, reformed, church plant in Tokyo. We are a diverse congregation seeking to portray the global nature of the Gospel in a culture known for its homogeneity.
After gathering for home Bible studies and reaching musicians, young professionals, their friends and families, we began our first public worship on Easter 2017. Since then, our church has become a fellowship for English speaking foreigners and Japanese in the Tokyo metropolitan area!
We are affiliated to City to City Asia Pacific, a partner of Resound Asia Pacific and a member church of Acts 29—-a global movement of church-planting churches.
We long to see people from every culture centering their lives on the Gospel of grace, integrating their faith and work, their artistic gifts with their faith, and showing mercy and justice for the common good of Tokyo, Japan and the World to God's glory.
あらゆる文化の人々が、福音の恵みを人生の中心とし、仕事と信仰、芸術的な賜物と信仰を融合し、東京や日本、そして世界の共通の益のために、憐れみと義を神に栄光をもたらすため示していくことを待ち望んでいます。

OUR GOSPEL DNA
-
Increasingly centering our lives on the gospel of grace as disciples of Jesus. Increasingly becoming honest, gracious and truthful to each other in community—in our heart and actions, as we are daily changed by the truths of the Gospel.
-
Increasingly living as “salt” and “light” of the gospel in the workplace; empowering young professionals, gifted musicians and artists to maximize their gifts for God’s glory by treasuring Jesus Christ above all things.
-
Increasingly growing in generosity through caring for the needy, the marginalized, the poor, the widows and orphans (James 1: 27).
-
Increasingly growing in doctrinal depth and outward-facing as a church, making disciples of Jesus, and planting churches in Tokyo, Japan and beyond.
our Culture
A culture of awe and wonder.
