Inspire: Let’s ignite inspiration! Educational opportunities, workshops, and shared passions fuel our curiosity and deepen our understanding of one another.

 

Nurture: Like a garden, our souls thrive when nurtured. SHINE provides a safe space—a haven where hearts bloom, friendships flourish, and love abounds.

Nozomi Japanese Mission​

A Place Where Hearts Connect, And Hope Blossoms.​

Nozomi—a word that means ‘hope’ in Japanese—embodies the spirit of resilience, renewal, and grace. Like cherry blossoms that bloom even after a harsh winter, the Nozomi community thrives through faith, fellowship, and love.

 

 

In the serene halls of University United Methodist Church, Nozomi gathers. Their voices blend in prayer, their laughter echoes, and their stories intertwine. Each person carries a unique tale—a tapestry woven with threads of joy, sorrow, and unwavering faith.

 

 

Nozomi is more than a mission; it’s a sanctuary of belonging. Here, hearts find solace, hands extend compassion, and souls discover purpose. Whether in quiet contemplation or spirited celebration, Nozomi reminds us that hope transcends borders, languages, and seasons.

 

 

So, let us embrace the Nozomi spirit—bold, resilient, and full of grace. Let hope bloom within us, like sakura petals carried by the wind. 

 

University United Methodist Church welcomes all, and Nozomi’s light shines brightly within its walls. May this mission continue to inspire, uplift, and nurture the human spirit.
