On December 17, 1637, a significant event transpired in Japan known as the Shimabara Rebellion. Driven by a deep sense of faith and a desire for justice, Japanese Catholics, ranging from humble peasants to valiant samurai, rose against the oppressive Shogunate.
In the face of persecution and hardships, these devout Catholics, led by the young and resolute samurai Amakusa Shiro, sought a more just and equitable society. With figures like Masuda Yoshitsugu and Yamada Emosaku at their side, they courageously embraced their Christian beliefs, sparking the Shimabara Rebellion as an expression of their commitment to religious freedom and fairness.
This historical episode not only reflects the struggles of a persecuted community but also stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of faith and resilience in the face of adversity.
Please pray for all Japanese who died while preserving the true faith.
