教会: Church

This is the perfect word to memorize for Sunday:

教会
( きょうかい / kyoukai )

This is the word for Church. I've known it for a while, but it was only within the last couple months that I learned the kanji for it, so I thought I'd share it today.

The characters that make up this word are "to teach" (教) and "to meet" (会). For me the meaning could be seen as the "place where people meet/gather to teach each other". Of course it could also be seen as the "place where people meet to be taught", but I like my first one better.

Anyways, it's been a long day of Church, so...good night!
