We are saddened to announce that Rev. Hiroshi Inose, who has served as director of KODAN for a long time, has ascended to the spiritual world.

We ask everyone to pray for the bereaved family members.

Under the directions of Heavenly Parent and True Parents, Rev. and Mrs. Inose couple came to the United States in the 1980s as part of the American providential personnel affairs of CARP leaders and moved into the United States with their family in 1990. Since then, for 36 years, they have been serving the American providence.

Along with your prayer, we would like to ask for your support for Mrs. Inose and their children in Japan so that Rev. Inose can ascend to the spiritual world without worrying about his family members.
