As a 21st-century approach to evangelism, the Lord is guiding the work of video and film. In this flow, the Hakuba Christian Film Festival will be held at the Hakuba Snergoi Camp.

For the work of the Gospel in this special end-time era, we warmly invite submissions such as testimonies, church introduction promotional videos, music videos, dramas, short films, and more. Please consider submitting your work and taking part in what God is doing through visual media.

We are accepting entries including testimonies, church promotional videos, music videos, dramas, and more, for evangelistic outreach in this unique time.
