＊All proceeds of the concert go to : “Supporting and helping the refugees from the Ukraine by the Japanese church” For the sake of supporting the refugees of the Ukraine, Ref. Nobuyuki Uchimura (The paster of Milano church /Japanese Church of the Southern Netherlands) is cooperating with the Ref. Valentin Nehro of the Baptist church in Borehove, Ukraine. Mr. Uchimura´s one of activities is to transport supplies, foods and donation money directly to the Ukraine. He drives a distance of 2,600 km round trip from Milano to Ukraine.

Mr. Uchimura says that supporting refugees is normally done by professional organizations, but at the same time, the activity of local churches is essential and should not be forgotten. My mission is helping such local churches in the Ukraine. In my view, the big problem is that children are suffering greatly. They are one of the biggest victims. I would like to help for the week such as children, family and elderly people who need great help.
