Speaking of Hawaii



A mission team from Hawaii is visiting Sapporo right now. This is the wonderful time when Christians from Hawaii and Japan cooperate together and serve the Lord. What are the images of Hawaii? There are many bywords, such as Waikiki beach, Hawaiian music, Hula dance, and so on.

One of them is Kona Coffee which is popular among coffee fans. A tree of Kona coffee was brought to Hawaii Island by a missionary in the 1800s. In the early 20th century, the price of coffee beans dropped so beans had fallen into Japanese immigrants’ hands. They produced coffee beans scanty. 75% of coffee farmers were Japanese until recently. As a result, American missionaries and Japanese immigrants cooperated together so that the world-wide brand was produced.

When the mission team from Hawaii and our church in Japan cooperate together and build a church, new life will be produced. More than that, we should not forget that all the life is a gift from the Creator.

1 Corinthians 3:6~9
