Quotes
[edit]- Catholics from other countries share their strong Catholic traditions and they are a channel of evangelisation. They represent hope for our local Church also because they have numerous children. Moreover many Catholic immigrant women marry Japanese husband, they are missionaries in the family and they bring up the children in the Catholic faith. Immigration is an important phenomenon in Japanese society, it is a challenge and an opportunity for evangelisation.
- We may have made a mistake concerning our attitude to nature or the environment. Genesis says that we should have control over every creature. But we should have control according to the will of God. But we are not God.
