6. Other things we would like to tell you
You can bring your own megaphones, musical instruments, banners, flags, placards, and star tracts to the parade. It is also OK to bring nothing. If you make your own original placard, you can appeal the gospel to many people. Anyone (non-believers) is welcome to attend. It would be great if as many people as possible could gather and share the Lord's resurrection and second coming. I believe that the Lord wants you to be the heroes of the gospel in the end times. Let's look forward to the Lord!
7. What does it mean to have a parade on Easter?
For the Bible, a parade is a declaration of the Lord's victory, a worship service, and a festival.
Easter is becoming much more recognized in Japan. Now is the perfect time to evangelize the true meaning of Easter, the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the second coming of the Lord to the 99% of unbelievers by uniting Christians and boldly parading together. Preach the word. "Preach the word, and do it well, whether times are good or bad. Reprove, rebuke, exhort with all perseverance, teaching continually."
(II Timothy 4:2)
8. Flyer Distribution and Evangelism
After the march, we will spend about 30 minutes distributing flyers at Ebisu Bridge in Namba. If you have some free time, we would appreciate your help with the flyer distribution. After that, we plan to go around the shopping district and do some postering with Easter flyers.
We would be grateful if anyone with some free time could join us (participation is optional).
For those who have flyers, you can bring any that contain information about the church and Easter events.
If you do not have any brochures, we will provide them for you.

7.To hold a parade at Christmas means?
in the Bible, a parade is a declaration of the Lord’s victory, an act of worship, and a celebration.
In Japan, Christmas has become commercialized, and in order to convey the true meaning of Christmas, it is important for Christians to come together boldly and hold a parade. This provides an excellent opportunity to share with the 99% of non-believers the true meaning of Christmas, the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and the Lord’s second coming. "Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction." (2 Timothy 4:2)
8.About leaflet distribution and evangelism.
After the parade, we will distribute flyers for about 30 minutes at Ebisubashi in Namba. If you have time, we would be happy for you to join us in handing out flyers. Afterward, we plan to visit the downtown area and distribute Christmas flyers by posting them.
If you have some free time, we would be grateful for your participation (optional).
Regarding the flyers, you are welcome to bring your own flyers with information about your church or Christmas events. If you do not have any, we will provide them for you.
