Catholic Mass in Japan

You better inquire here: http://catholic.jp/eng.htm; if you want to attend mass every day, it will seriously limit your options while traveling in Japan. I'm not religous myself and I mean no offense, but I can't help wondering if skipping mass for the duration of your travels will be such a bad thing?

Of course, I can to skip the mass for the duration of my travel. I will go work ten days in japan and I understand that the important is the sunday mass. But, I usually assits to the holy mass everyday and so, I want to try it in Japan if is possible. Thank's for your atention.

I am staying around Ichigaya and new here in Japan. Last sunday went to St Mary's cathedral but just saw that St. Ignatius has English mass, can i walk from where am staying...which street is it found on?

You could also try Franciscan Chapel Center in Roppongi link to their website here

Just thought I drop a note for all you travellers who are in Japan or planning to go Japan and wondering if you are able to find a Catholic Church with a English Mass.

Drop by this website and it provides information on English masses in Japan and around the world. Thanks to Robert from Singapore for setting up such a website.

I'm living in Japan at the moment, and the end of lent, I usually like to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Anyone know if it's available in English in Hiroshima-ken, the kansai region, or any of the surrounding prefectures?

hello! i found this website very helpful, it is in English and gives details about Hiroshima region churches. You may find English speaking priests somewhere, have a good Reconciliation Sacrament...

Where can I find the order of the Catholic Mass in Japanese (ex. opening prayers, prayers for communion, etc.)? I tried the Catholic expatriates in japan website, but I couldn't get through.

Even if you are not Catholic, I highly recommend attending Sunday Mass at St. Marys Cathedral. On my pbase site, linked below, are some photos and maps of two ways to get there.
