Japanese missionary overseas
In 1966 the Divine Word Seminary was transferred to its present location in Yagumo-cho, Nagoya. The international character of the Province is further advanced as Japanese seminarians also pursue research and study abroad. At present there are over 100 members working in the Province, of whom half are non-Japanese, in line with the Society's particular international character of having members from different nationalities working side-by-side in its missions. At the same time Japanese members have been sent to work in Taiwan, the Philippines, Australia, Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil, Ghana, and Germany.
