Prepare before the New Year Comes

Before the new year comes, please get goshinkyo (home alter) ready for welcoming new goshintai. In order to avoid crowds, we recommend you to purchase kankazari and shimekazari before the yearend.
About the disposal of old kankazari and shimekazari, please wrap them with paper and throw them away properly at home. For infection prevention, please refrain from returning them to Shinji Kyōkai. We appreciate your cooperation.
In addition, we recommend you to pay annual membership dues and purchase Kyōkai calendar before the new year comes.
