Christ is Risen!


My question is directed to those on these forums who are of the Diocese of Sydney. I was wondering if anyone could give me the contact information and email of Father Thomas Kanazaki. I am wondering how many missionary trips does the Diocese take to Japan, how many visits take place, and if Fr. Thomas is open for visitors to come and serve with him in missionary work. I would love to hear back from you Sydney peeps, and would love to get his email.


Indeed, He is Risen!!

Filopater,

Thank you. I tried that number and the other ones on the Diocese website and none of them seem to work. Is there any additional numbers that need to be dialed besides the international 011? Would love if you know the best way to get a hold of him, and if you can get his email. Thanks.

Hello there,

Yes the Diocese website isn't updated to the new details. The Diocese does not do any missionary trips to Japan. (I guess because it's expensive and too difficult). Offcourse Fr. Thomas would like to have visitors!! I know he gets lonely in Japan. He absolutely LOVES Egypt and Australia lol. Abouna Thomas can talk Japanese (obviously) and Arabic very well as he lived in Egypt for 10 years, but very weak in english. I serve sometimes in the Diocese so I can definitely try and find for you his latest contact details. But, I have exams now.. I will email the secratery for the details for you.
Japan is an amazing country! Are you planning on going?

God Bless

Please try to reach him with his mobile (+81) 803-4457-367

I stayed in Japan for two years(2005-2007). Fr. Thomas used to travel from so far to visit me. I also remember we had a very nice liturgy on the Chrismas of 2006 in Tokyo. Ethiopians, Copts, and Japanese attended it. It was really wonderful. An Ethiopian deacon, a coptic one were serving with Fr Thomas.

Currently, I am informed that he is now much better interms of getting a permanent place of service around Tokyo as a new building is owned by the church for service.



I missed him so much

Pray for me
