Takara o Ireta Tsuchi no Utsu wa will be in concert at Suita Bible Gospel Church this coming weekend. Their name translated into English is Jars of Clay, but they are not the popular rock-folk-acoustic-R&B-alternative rock Christian band from America. However, they are Christian, have a great sound and are professional musicians.

They will be performing at the church during both services starting at 9:40am and then at 11:30am. The concert is of course free for anyone who attends.

Afterwards, there will be Korean food being served on the 4th floor of the church starting directly after the concert at 1:15pm. Lunch is 100yen.
