Co-operative Church
Confronted by the diffculty of rebuilding churches destroyed during tlie war, many denominational groups in Tokyo have decided upon a co-operative programme. Seven pastors of ruined churches in the poorer districts have drafted a plan whereby each will undertake specialised responsibilities in one common church building. One pastor will look after the young people, another will co-ordinate social work and community activities, a third will supervise evangelism, and so on. The church building will be a barrack which recently arrived in Yokohama from the United States. Ministers of the Methodist, Presbyterian, United Brethren, Evangelical, Holiness and Baptist Churches are participating.
