ABOUT LIFEHOUSE
Welcome to Lifehouse International Church. We are an international church with locations across Japan and throughout Asia.
MEET THE
PASTORS
They oversee all of our Lifehouse Churches across Japan, Asia and beyond.
Ps Rod & Viv pastored for many years in Australia, and have led multiple church-planting projects in nations such as Thailand, the Philippines, and Indonesia.
In response to God’s call, Ps Rod and Viv, along with their two sons, left a large, thriving church in Toowoomba, Australia to plant a new church in Tokyo, Japan.
Their heart is to inspire, mentor, and equip hundreds of young Japanese and foreign leaders to minister to the needs of people not only in the greater Tokyo area, but throughout Japan, Asia and beyond.
Ps Rod is known as a “training pastor”, having raised up and discipled hundreds of leaders who are now serving and training the next generation in all areas of ministry.
Our pastors are the true embodiment of what it means to “Go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19 NIV)
OUR STORY
Lifehouse is a bilingual, international church where many come to encounter God and forge life-giving friendships. The name “Lifehouse” itself reflects our desire to build a fun and exciting community where people can freely come and experience God’s amazing love.
Lifehouse started in Tokyo, Japan in 2002 with 16 people. We now have multiple services and campuses all across Japan and in other parts of the Asia-Pacific Region. If this is your first time in church, you are very welcome to join us and enjoy this warm and friendly community.
OUR MISSION
Lifehouse’s mission is to:
Honor God, Equip believers, Share Good News
HONOR GOD
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:37-40 NIV
EQUIP BELIEVERS
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up. Ephesians 4:11-12 NIV
SHARE GOOD NEWS
He said to them, “Go everywhere in the world. Tell the Good News to everyone.” Mark 16:15 ERV
