Hello to all you Japanese living in Chicago and all who have an interest in Japan! First off, to explain where the name "Pneuma" came from...
Q. And it means "wind," "breath," or, going a little deeper, "spirit" or "soul." So what does that have to do with anything?
1. Chicago is called the "Windy City."
2. The word has a nice sound to it.
3. We want a new "wind" to blow through Chicago.
4. For it to breath in a new "breath"
5. Bringing change to this city and its people. So, to sum it up...
Pneuma is a Christian student group in Chicago whose desire is to see Japanese people to encounter God. We want each and every person who comes to our gatherings to discover who God is, experience His love, and to know that they are accepted just as they are. We'll be getting together once a month to eat good food, sing songs, and play games. We'll also get to hear people share what the Bible has to say about different topics, what being a Christian is all about, and give their testimony of why they became a Christian. Everything is free of course! So just come as you are!
