<div>Yoichi "Forest" and Tomo Mori founded the Japanese Hope Family Mountain Family church which is currently located in Centennial, Colorado in 2009 (<a href="https://www.jhmfc.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.jhmfc.org</a>).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>During Labor Day weekend, the Mori family flew to Washington to assist with the services at Lynnwood Japanese Family Church in Edmonds, WA (<a href="https://www.en.ljfamily.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="http://www.en.ljfamily.org" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.en.ljfamily.org</a></a>). In the early morning of September 4, 2023, the Mori family was driving to the airport in Seattle, Washington, when a drunk/drugged driver drove the wrong way on interstate I-5 and collided with the Mori’s car head on. All five family members were transported to hospital intensive care units (ICU) throughout Seattle. Please help support the family with the significant medical bills. Please also pray for their recovery from injuries and safe travel back to Denver when they are able.

<div>森ファミリーは牧師家族で、２００９年にアメリカ・コロラド州でJapanese Hope Mountain Family Churchをスタートさせました。
</div>
<div>レイバーデイの週末、森家はシアトル近郊にあるリンウッド日本人ファミリー教会で奉仕するため、ワシントン州に飛び立ちました。奉仕を終えて次の日、２０２３年９月４日早朝、森家がシアトルの空港に向かう途中、高速道路（I-5)を逆走してきた車に正面衝突されました。逆走のドライバーは飲酒運転かドラッグ使用だったとの警察からの報告でした。森家5人全員、すぐさまシアトルのICUに救急車で運ばれ、現在も治療を受けています。森家の怪我からの速やかな回復と、回復後デンバーに安全に戻って来れるようお祈り下さい。
</div>
