The names are omitted because I am an older woman and forgot them. But they are not forgotten by the Lord.

She was a pre-teen girl with her parents in a Christian mission with the drum beats of war coming closer and closer. She and her family ran out of luck and were captured by the advancing Japanese army. The head officer ordered the girls parents to be beheaded. The executioner did it right in front of her. Shortly after this she was returned to Americans and sent back to the USA. Asked what she wanted to do she mentioned ministering to Japanese prisoners of war. The prisoners were held in lonely nasty spots out in western deserts. As things would workout two Japanese prisoners were in one of these camps and one of them had been the wing pilot on the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor and another pilot were discussing the war criminal trials some Japanese officers were undergoing.the wingman from the raid on Pearl was irate they were trying Japanese soldiers. He was convinced Americans were no better. Another prisoner knew the story of the young orphaned girl who ministered so lovingly to the Japanese prisoners and shared it with the Pear Harbor pilots and they were in a state of disbelief.

those seeds of the Good News are dangerous and they found some good soil in the heart of the pilot who was convinced Americans were as barbaric and unforgiving as the Japanese who lived by the code of Bushido The Way of the Warrior. The pilot who helped lead the raid on Pearl Harbor heard the call of a Jewish carpenter through the ministry of a young girl whose parents had been beheaded. His sheep respond to His voice. He returned to Japan and was instrumental being used to convert thousands of Japanese to becoming Christians. He had exchanged Bushido- the Way of the Warrior for the Way of the Cross. Thanks to all who serve.
