Today’s Gospel of John, chapter 12, verse 20 and following, records that some Greeks had come up to Jerusalem to worship during the Jewish festival (the Passover).
They were likely Greeks who had converted to Judaism, but even if not, it was not particularly surprising for Greeks to come to Jerusalem. The Greeks were a people who often traveled the world to broaden their knowledge and horizons. The historian Herodotus is also known for traveling extensively and recording his observations. The Greeks were a people who not only sought out countries suitable for trade partners but also traveled the world for the sake of travel itself.
They approached Philip, one of Jesus' disciples, saying, “We wish to see Jesus.” It is not clear whether Jesus met with them directly. But upon hearing this request, Jesus said, “Unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a single grain. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.” This morning, we hear God's word from this famous saying.

The First letter to the Corinthians was written in Ephesus around 54–55 AD. During his second missionary journey, Paul began in the Macedonian region of Greece and continued his evangelistic travels, moving from city to city. He then moved from Macedonia to the province of Achaia, and after Athens, the next city he visited was Corinth. Corinth was a thriving city at that time, boasting a port that served as a key hub for East-West trade. With a population of 600,000, it was the largest city in Greece.
However, establishing the church of Jesus Christ in this town at the foot of the hill where magnificent Greek temples stood within the Hellenistic cultural area was no easy task. Paul said he had preached the gospel to the spiritually immature believers of the Corinthian church “as to infants in Christ.” He had fed them milk, not solid food.
What was the challenge facing the believers at the Corinthian church? It was growing from being “people of the flesh” to becoming “people of the Spirit.” This is not a problem unique to the Corinthian church. Today, we will listen to the Word of God as we explore this theme.

The Letter to the Philippians is a letter written by Paul and Silas to the church they established in Philippi, the foremost city of Macedonia. They entered Philippi during their second missionary journey after hearing the “cry from Macedonia” (Acts 16:9). During the church's founding, a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth, became Paul's co-worker. She offered her home as lodging and supported Paul's ministry.
Furthermore, even after Paul left the city of Philippi to embark on his next missionary journey, the Philippian church is known to have continued supporting Paul's ministry through material goods and financial contributions. Though never a large church, its overflowing love made it a dependable and trustworthy church for Paul in many ways.
Paul is now in prison in Ephesus, writing words of counsel to the church regarding the problems arising within the Philippian church. Though there were opponents of Paul within the church, he says, “As long as Christ is being proclaimed, that is enough.”
Today we hear the Word from the Letter to the Philippians under the theme “Proclaiming Christ.”

Kurigasawa Church marks its 57th anniversary this February since beginning its ministry in Koganehara in 1969. Its predecessor, known as the Hikarigaoka Mission Station, held worship services in a prefabricated house built in Mr. Tomihira's garden as a mission station of Ichikawa Church.
Last spring, I met Mr. Tomihira's daughter at the Catholic Church in Matsudo. When I showed her some old photographs, she expressed deep nostalgia. I asked her, “Please come to the church for next year's commemorative service and share your memories from that time.” It was regrettable to receive a polite letter declining the invitation.
In August 1970, the year after evangelism began, the old church building and parsonage were completed, and the family of the first pastor, Reverend Takeshi Kajita, moved in. Reverend Kajita actively pursued relationships with the community, serving as president of the Neguchi Elementary School PTA, and energetically devoted himself to evangelism. It is said that nearly 100 children attended worship services at Christmas. Thanks to the work of our founding pastor, who led the church during its pioneering years, the foundation of today's Kurigasawa Church was laid. Today's worship service will be a time to reflect on the journey of Kurigasawa Church.

Today's passage from Genesis 32 describes the moment when Jacob, about to reunite with his brother Esau, crossed the ford of Jabbok with his wives and children. At this point, he sent his wives ahead, leaving Jacob alone behind.
Fourteen years earlier, Jacob had conspired with his mother Rebekah to disguise himself as his brother and deceive their blind father Isaac into believing he was Esau. He had stolen Isaac's blessing meant for his brother. That act must have weighed on Jacob's heart like lead. If he made a mistake, his brother might attack him and take everything away. Jacob feared this and agonized over it. So, to appease his brother's anger, he prepared gifts: hundreds of sheep and goats, along with camels and donkeys.
However, what Jacob needed most at that moment was not his brother's forgiveness, but to receive forgiveness from the Lord God. That night, the one who wrestled with Jacob on the banks of Penuel was undoubtedly the angel of the Lord. Jacob declared, “I will not let you go until you bless me.” Today, we hear the Word from this passage.
