DIRECTIONS :
The church’s address is 1700 W Highway 96, Arden Hills, MN 55112
From Interstate 35W, exit onto Hiway 96 and go east until you see the church sign on the right. From 35E, exit on Hiway 96 and go west, past Hamline Ave., look for the church sign on the left.
The signs will direct you. Park in the North lot. Reach the plaza by going down the service road or enter through the north entrance - Door A.

The plan is to have a potluck meal as we’ve done in the past.
Please bring a hot dish or a salad or a dessert. Rolls or bread, coffee, tea, and cold drinks will be provided. Plates, cups/glasses and tableware will also be available.

We will have the use of the outdoor plaza. Some picnic tables and benches are there, but it might be helpful if you bring your own lawn chairs. In case of bad weather, there is a lounge area inside the lower level of the church (just off the plaza) where we can meet. The kitchenette is also in that area and plenty of space for dining and having fellowship together.
If you have children or grandchildren, bring them along and they’ll enjoy a playground very near the plaza.

Encourage anyone with any Japan connection to join us.
