Report origami
Origami originated in 17th century Japan as a way of folding paper into decorative shapes and objects. The art involves techniques like action origami, modular origami, and wet-folding. Some famous origami artists mentioned include Humiaki Huzita, Satoshi Kamiya, Éric Joisel, Kunihiko Kasahara, and Akira Yoshizawa, considered the father of modern origami. The story of Sadako Sasaki, an atomic bomb survivor who folded paper cranes while sick with leukemia, inspired the custom of making 1000 paper cranes for good luck or to honor someone. Basic instructions are provided for making paper roses and other origami shapes.
Origami
Origami is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. It began in Japan in the 17th century AD. Paper making originated in China in the 1st century AD and spread to Japan in the 6th century AD. Origami developed further during Japan's Edo period from 1600-1868 when paper production increased. Famous origami artists like Akira Yoshizawa developed new folding techniques and created thousands of original designs.

Jcr shito & islam
Shinto is Japan's indigenous religion that focuses on ritual rather than doctrine. It is considered a way of life rather than a religion by many Japanese. Shinto has no single founder or sacred texts but instead originated from ancient animistic beliefs that respected nature and sacred sites associated with kami (spirits or deities). Major Shinto sects like Tenrikyo and Konkokyo have unique doctrines while still participating in broader Shinto practices. Tenrikyo emphasizes acceptance and interconnected principles while Konkokyo sees all things as relating to the Parent God and aims to reduce suffering through gratitude and prayer.

Popular Kabuki plays retell important stories from Japanese history and include Treasured Retainers, Yoshitsune and the Thousand Cherry Trees, and Sugawara and the Secrets of Calligraphy.
Bunraku
Bunraku is a traditional Japanese puppet theater founded in Osaka in 1684. Performances involve three types of performers - puppeteers who manipulate life-sized puppets using complex mechanisms, chanters who narrate the story, and shamisen players who provide musical accompaniment. Puppets have carved wooden heads and silk costumes and come in male and female varieties corresponding to different character types. Performances take place on an elevated stage area with partitions that conceal the puppeteers as they skillfully maneuver the puppets.
About noh jeffrey
Noh is a Japanese art form that utilizes masks. There were originally around 60 types of masks, but now there are over 200 varieties used. Masks are carefully chosen by performers depending on the specific Noh play. Masks began as religious icons but took on more human characteristics during the Muromachi period from 1392-1573 CE. Performers are able to express a variety of emotions by subtly tilting the mask up or down. Masks are valuable heirlooms passed down through generations and performers seek to "become" the mask during a performance in order to express the character's feelings.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
