Japanese Christian School in Sendai Needs Help
Japanese Christian High School (established in 1886) in Sendai Needs Help The president of the High School writes, "The March 11 earthquake seriously damaged Miyagi Gakuin and some of our students were killed in the tsunami following the quake. Some students who survived sadly lost parents and other relatives. As a result, a great number of our students are struggling to recover from the tremendous personal and financial losses that have occurred in this tragic disaster. With a firm belief in Jesus Christ, we tell our students that we will support them both spiritually and financially in spite of our own financial difficulties that have resulted from the substantial damages to Miyagi Gakuin's school facilities Miyagi Gakuin has been providingChristian education to high school girls ever since it was founded 125 years ago in the name of Jesus Christ. In addition, Miyagi Gakuin has offered university as well as kindergarten education over the past 60 years. We currently have an enrollment of over 4000 students including university, high school and unior high school students, and kindergarten children for whom we feel a deep sense of responsibility to help them grow and reach their goals. In order that we may fully support our students in their time of greatest need, we are humbling asking for donations from the community to help us help our students. Please send donation checks to Miyagi Gakuin, 9 Sakuragaoka, Sendai 981-8557, Japan.
