Third and Fourth?

While the first “State of Emergency” was lifted at the end of March; TMC resumed worship service in person immediately, and we also held a “social distancing picnic” on Easter Sunday afternoon. Although everyone have to prepare their meals for themselves, it reminds everyone how we enjoy our potlucks at church after we have stopped it longer than a year. Unfortunately a month later, The pandemic made Tokyo announced their third “S.O.E”, and we “have to” move all the services online again. Until Tokyo government changed “S.O.E” to “Focus Restriction” by the end of June, TMC has worshiped and gathered online longer than 4 months this year. While “F.R” is announced, Covid cases has rising again, especially IOC chairman has arrived Japan and said Olympics can be held even Tokyo is under “S.O.E”. Base on the rising cases and other reasons, TMC leaders think the fourth “S.O.E” should be announced in Tokyo in the mid of July. However, we still have His peace in our hearts because we know our Lord is with us!
