A translation of "Words of the Week" published in the Seikyo Shinbun based on President Ikeda's recent guidance, and more.

January 7th-13th, 2019
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
Whether we have a victorious year or not
depends on 
the momentum we have in our lives
and how joyfully we are united 
towards achieving our mutual goals.
Let's therefore hold
the most cheerful and happy 
discussion meetings we can 
and open up a path to winning lives 
and success in advancing 
the kosen-rufu movement!
