Shinji Kyōkai Departments

The Shinji Kyōkai staff are engaged in a wide range of duties including those of specialized fields.

Educational Affairs

We offer easy-to-understand lectures so that shinja are able to practice the teachings in day-to-day life. Also, we offer counseling sessions which are freely available to help shinja deepen the focus and understanding of Kami’s teachings, and applying them to their situation to move forward in life.

Ceremonies

We maintain the ambience of the main Kigan area known as the Shinden. In ceremonies, we connect the kokoro of shinja to Kami. We make arrangements for all ceremonies including the funeral with consideration for the feelings of the family.

 

Chiiki (Local Community) Management

Chiiki is a place where shinja can practice the Kami’s teachings, and hone our kokoro together with other shinja in that community. In this local community, each family has a contact person in the same area known as a kakari.
We offer services to support and manage the local community:

1. Handling of registration and other procedures at the information and service support center.

2. Management of lectures and class rooms. We also provide events and gatherings for kakari, and for singles who hope for marriage to start a family.

 

Public Relations

We are here to compile collections of Shinji, edit various publications on the teachings,"Yūwa" booklets, and the history book of Shinji Kyōkai. We are also engaged in offering useful and relevant information about Kyōkai through our official website, e-mail magazine (Nanohana Tsūshin), and a publication called “My Story―Kokoro no Tabiji ” edited from voices of Shinja who have experienced Kami's salvations, etc.  We also carry out the broadcasting and recording of various Kyōkai functions.

 

General Affairs

We act as liaison among departments. We take charge of human resources, accounting, external affairs, and any others necessary to pursue the purpose of Shinji Kyōkai.

 

Shinja Services

We sell books, publications, calendars, and souvenirs. We also make various travel arrangements, booking tickets and accommodations for Kyōkai facilities.
In our dining area, we are waiting for our guests with variety of menus; light meals to authentic dinner trays such as Kaiseki Zen. We are here to greet everyone with a warm hospitality.

 

Facility Management and Production

We construct and work on the facilities of Shinji Kyōkai. We always try to keep the facilities to be nice and clean. We strive to maintain this environment for everyone to stay comfortably. For this, we pay careful attention to the details and environment of Shinji Kyōkai.
We also control logistics for the production of printed materials, Goshintai and other related items and for the distribution of these items to Hikari no Yakata that are located throughout Japan.
