-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Each and every day,
brimming with a sense of mission and pride,
our uncrowned heroes and heroines courageously advance
along the golden road to achieving kosen-rufu, by
delivering the Seikyo Shimbun and SGI publications.
I sincerely and earnestly pray that all the
deliverers stay healthy and that all your
deliveries are absolutely free of accidents.
Let's all make sure to express our appreciation and admiration for their selfless dedication!

"It is the heart that is important."

---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
The protective forces of the universe will most certainly safeguard individuals of firm faith.
Carelessness or overconfidence though is our greatest enemy.
To stay in good health and be absolutely accident-free
--these are the top priorities in our activities.
Keeping this always in mind,
let's put forth our best, till the very end of the year,
and accomplish all our goals and targets so that
we can make this year the most victorious and successful year ever.
