Text transcribed from caption: S-4151 SUNDAY AFTERNOON SERVICES POPULAR IN JAPAN NAGOYA, Japan -- One of the interesting phases of current postwar Japanese Christian activity is the popularity of Sunday afternoon meetings which complement regular Sunday morning services, although they are less formal. This group is shown leaving the Central Church of Christ here following a Sunday afternoon service. There are some 11 Protestant churches left in Nagoya. Bombed area in background id now squared off into gardens. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RR-GEN-MES-7D-6-W-P-L)
