True Orthodox in Japan

Post by searn77 »

Does anyone know if there are any TOCs present in Japan? I know someone who is going to Japan who would most likely want to visit one. I know St. Nicholas of Japan brought Orthodoxy from Russia into Japan, so I would think that there might be a Russian True Orthodox synod present there. From the web searching that I've done so far, I found one website that claims there's one Russian Matthewite parish present in Japan but this website doesn't give any details on the parish. I also saw that ROCOR under Metropolitan Agafangel has a bishop of a few different places, one of which is Japan, but the ROCOR website doesn't show them as having any parishes in Japan.

Have you looked on the HOTCA directory?

Yes, I've looked at HOTCA's, ROCOR-A's, and a few other TOC synods' directories that I can't remember off the top of my head. From the directories that I've come across, I can't seem to find any TOC located in Japan.
