-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of those members and their families
who have been so kind to offer their homes
for our meetings throughout this year,
thank you all so very much!
At the same time, we deeply appreciate your neighbours'
generous understanding and support of our movement's activities.
Now, together,
let's all take good care of these precious Soka castles
so that they can always stand as respectable and trustworthy centres of the local community.
