The Words of the Kimura Family |
Hi Everyone,
We are so happy to welcome Rev. Shoichi Kimura to speak with us! An accomplished author and in love with Heaven's way, he has inspired thousands to seek the True Heart of Jesus. His sermon title will be "True Parent's love toward Jesus and Christianity -- The background of Tears of Jesus".
Rev. Kimura was born in 1953 in Kyoto to a devout Catholic family. He joined the Unification Church in 1970 and worked with HARP/CARP. He studied theology at Doshisha University (Protestant), worked for Wakyo Church, ICPA (International Christian Professors' Academy) and then he received his Master of Divinity at Sophia University(Catholic)and UTS.
Among his many accomplishments he can include handing a copy of the Divine Principle book to Pope John Paul II! After graduating from the UTS, Rev. Kimura worked in the Ukraine as a missionary. He responded to True Father's appeal for a novel which should reveal True Jesus' Life, "Was the Crucifixion the Will of God or not?" He started his theological research and writing in Germany in 1998. He published his book, "Tears of Jesus", in November 2008. True Father put his signature on his book "Tears of Jesus." Written in Japanese, it has been translated into German, English, Italian, Portuguese and French.
Rev. Kimura's new book, "Tears of Mary" won the best novel prize out of 8442 novels in 2010 by Magazine House and Intel Japan. Also, it is now in English, German and soon Korean.
Rev Kimura and his wonderful wife, Sonija were in the 2075 Blessing and have a precious daughter.
We hope you can join us and hear from him, first hand, of True Pa rent's love toward Jesus and Christianity-and The background of "Tears of Jesus".
