The Bishop of Tohoku, the Rt Rev John Hiromichi Kato, said that the affected area was very wide and diocesan staff had not been able to visit all areas.
One member of St John’s Church, Isoyama, has been confirmed dead but there has still been no news of the tiny church’s other seven members.
“We pray that they are all safe in some temporary shelter,” said Bishop Kato.
The diocese’s main church, Christ Church Sendai, has still not been able to locate some of its members.
