Some variety of guests who attended and the of them became regular guests so we wanted to hold the workshop before the start of the summer holiday when most of the students will go home. The guests included students of different backgrounds, Christian Ministers, young Unificationists and their parents. In total, around 40 people came. The discussion groups after the lectures were very lively with lots of questions – one student had 10 pages of questions and notes. While some people attended to learn Principle for the first time, others came to learn how to teach Principle with this simpler, broad approach. After the seminar, we invited everyone to attend a farewell party for the Japanese missionaries. There was delicious food, an interesting mix of home-made Japanese and Indian dishes and then we were treated to a thrilling performance by the WAIT team. To finish, there was a beautiful song and dances from the Japanese missionaries themselves.

Also during the party, the missionaries each shared their deep testimonies of lives spent in service to God and then some of the seminar guests (University students) shared their impressions of the Principle lectures and what they had learnt from the examples of the young dedicated Japanese ladies. In conclusion, this programme of witnessing will continue as will the seminars. In addition, we will hold coaching sessions for those who would like to learn to teach this content.
