In his greeting, President Narii introduced the ten new staff members and one trainee from SEMES’s third class from World Church of Messiah Brazil. The eleven who took the stage showed their determination to devote themselves to the divine work that Masaaki-sama reveals through his sacred guidance and proudly stood with focused expressions. Masaaki-sama and Mami-okusama joined everyone in singing “Jesus” (original English song title is “One Day (When We All Get to Heaven)”), with lyrics translated into Japanese by Masaaki-sama. Masaaki-sama stated in his Sacred Word that when translating the lyrics, he rendered them such that one could feel that heaven has already been established within each person. The blessing of all the service attendees of World Church of Messiah—the true Christianity—uniting their voices to praise Jesus Christ brought light to the members’ eyes and tears of joy to others, one person after another. Then Masaaki-sama granted us his Sacred Word. Masaaki-sama’s blazing passion for salvation and spreading the gospel was so sublime, he was like Meishu-sama himself. Participants held their breath as they listened with their entire being. In his Sacred Word, Masaaki-sama introduced Kahori Takeda, proprietress of the kimono shop Kimono Hanabusa. The kimonos worn by Masaaki-sama and Mami-okusama are completely vegan, using no animal-derived materials. He revealed that they sometimes have their kimonos tailored at Kimono Hanabusa, a kimono shop that offers delicately colored polyester fabrics of the finest quality with elegant designs. To the proprietress, who enthusiastically checks World Church of Messiah’s Instagram page, Masaaki-sama most graciously called out from the stage, “Please become a member of our Church,” demonstrating before the members’ eyes the model for missionary work.
