[edit] Kobe Bible Fellowship

A bilingual church in Sannomiya (everything - songs, prayers, message are in English and Japanese). It's a couple of minutes walk from Ikuta Shrine / Tokyu Hands. There are lots of Japanese and foreigners, and a variety of ages. The style is quite contemporary. The main service is at 4pm, and there is a morning service as well (but it's just in Japanese).
