The PCJC Network (Pacific Coast Japanese Conference) was founded upon the sacrificial lives of four women who reached out in faith to the first Japanese who had settled in the United States in the early 1900’s. The network was forged out of the difficult and challenging conditions of the Japanese Internment Camps of the 1940’s. Today, the PCJC is a multi-ethnic network of 21 churches and three preaching points, with an aggressive strategy and vision to plant churches through their newly founded RIZE Church Planting Network. The goal of launching RIZE is to plant “20 churches in 10 years” from San Diego to Seattle and beyond.
