30th Anniversary of Southern Baptist Convention work in Japan. Location: Chapel at Ninooka, Gotemba, Shizuoka Prefecture.
The SBC missionaries in Japan would get together in summer (July or August) for their annual mission meeting. In the 1910s through 1920s, since many of the missionaries would already be staying at Gotemba, Shizuoka Prefecture, in the American Village at Ninooka, they would hold their meetings there. They Rays and Mills owned summer cottages in Karuizawa so they would only come to Ninooka for the several days of meetings and then go back to Karuizawa.
This is the chapel in Ninooka that was built especially for the foreign community to worship at during their summer stay each year. I will attach some other photos of it with comments. circa summer 1922.
