2026 Hollywood Team Return Report

Thank you very much for all your prayers.
We have returned safely to Japan today.

Following the Martyrs’ Commemoration Service on February 5, the team traveled to the United States. On the day of arrival, we attended the red carpet event and awards ceremony, covering the event as Movieguide Japan.

At the Movieguide Sunday service, the message began with the word from God, “An animated film on the Twenty-Six Martyrs from Hollywood.” We were given the opportunity to share a testimony about our encounter with Ted Baehr, as well as to speak about the differences between this vision and the film Silence.

We also showed the English-subtitled version of the video we produced, “A Legacy Passed On: 800 Years from Francis of Assisi,” to members of the Catholic community.

We were blessed with time for prayer in the Prayer Chapel at Church on the Way, and we are grateful that our travel and driving were protected throughout the trip.

We give thanks to God for all that He has done.
