6. Other Information
During the parade, you are welcome to bring megaphones, instruments, banners, flags, placards, and Easter tracts. Coming empty-handed is also fine. If you make and bring your own original placard, it's a great way to share the Gospel with even more people. Anyone — including non-believers — is welcome to join. We hope as many people as possible will gather to proclaim the Lord's resurrection and second coming. We believe the Lord desires each of us to become a warrior of the Gospel in these last days. Let's put our hope in the Lord together!

7. Why We Hold a Parade at Christmas
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 many people don't know its true meaning. Now is the time for believers to unite and boldly walk together in this parade — a wonderful opportunity to share with the 99% who are not yet believers the true meaning of Christmas, along with the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the Lord's second coming.
"Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction." (2 Timothy 4:2)

8. After the Parade
Following the parade, we will move to Naniwa Park (5-minute walk).
Address: 1-1 Shiokusa, Naniwa-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture

After the parade, a Christmas Gospel Concert & Gathering will be held at Minatomachi River Place Plaza 1. Since this event also serves as an outreach opportunity, please feel free to invite friends and join us together. Let's close the day giving glory to God, all together. We look forward to seeing you there with all our hearts. (Admission free)
