-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
Thanks to all of our dear 
fellow members' hard work
 and selfless dedicated efforts,
we have achieved 
outstanding expansion 
in our kosen-rufu movement 
this year!
Hurrah to everyone!
The Daishonin assures us,
"The blessings and wisdom 
of the 
objective and subjective worlds are
immeasurable."*
By using our wisdom 
and good common sense 
to maintain good health 
and be accident and incident free,
let's all welcome in 
a very happy new year!
