Konkō Mission of Honolulu ー 金光教ホノルル教会

Konkō Mission of Honolulu ー 金光教ホノルル教会 The Church was established by the late Reverends Masayuki and Kikue Kodama, who had a firm desire to help the people living in Hawaiʻi. While away, the Rev.

Through their Toritsugi-Mediation, prayers, and love, believers were nurtured to become ministers who would eventually go out to establish churches. During World War II, Rev. Masayuki Kodama was taken from his family and put into internment camps first in Hawaiʻi then on the Continental United States. He would be repatriated to Japan in September of 1943 and found his way back to his ʻohana in April of 1950. Kikue Kodama along with the entire congregation was able to pay off the entire mortgage for the property. Also, after the war, Kikue Sensei would carry a care-box one at a time, by bus to the post office, to deliver to churches in Japan that were hurt during the war. Her selfless act has not been forgotten by many churches in Japan. On August 24, 1973, Masayuki Sensei passed away saying that he was receiving the greatest blessing ever. Kikue Sensei took over as head minister of the Church on August 27, 1973. On January 1, 1981, Kikue Sensei suffered a stroke. Needing help, the Reverends Masahiko and Sugako Yoshino where sent to assist her on October 15, 1981. With great sadness, Kikue Sensei's life came to an end in Japan on November 28, 1997. Her passing is an amazing story all together. While in the hospital many family members from all over Japan were able to visit her one final time. Truly a woman of incredible virtue. However, it must be noted that caring for Kikue Sensei was her eldest child, Dorothy. Dorothy sacrificed her career to stay by her motherʻs side and assist her in goyo (divine works of love for God the Parent). Dorothy also assisted her father when he struggled with his physical ailments from 1950 to 1973. She is a woman of incredible virtue.
