佐久市旧家に護られていたキリシタン金襴

信州佐久岩村田は中山道の宿場であり、少なくともジョアン・ロドリゲス神父が江戸で家康とフランシスコ会の宣教について交渉し(1606年)許可を得た後、中山道を通って京都に帰ったことが知られている。このことから、当時、中山道を往来した宣教師は、公然と布教活動をしていたと考えられ、洗礼を授けた記念か宿泊接待の返礼として、当時としては貴重な金襴を残していったとしておかしくない。谷村秀彦筑波大学名誉教授手記より抜粋。

SUMMARY
=======
The Meiji period (明治時代, Meiji-jidai), or Meiji era, was a Japanese era which extended from October 23, 1868, to July 30, 1912. This period represents the first half of the Empire of Japan, during which Japanese society moved from being an isolated feudal society to a Westernised form. Fundamental changes affected its social structure, internal politics, economy, military and foreign relations. The period corresponded to the reign of Emperor Meiji and was succeeded upon the accession of Emperor Taishō by the Taishō period.

SUMMARY
=======
The persecution of Christians can be historically traced from the first century of the Christian era to the present day. Early Christians were persecuted for their faith at the hands of both a small number of Jews from whose religion Christianity arose and the Romans who controlled many of the lands across which early Christianity was spread. Early in the fourth century, a form of the religion was legalized by the Edict of Milan, and it eventually became the State church of the Roman Empire.
Christian missionaries as well as converts to Christianity have been the target of persecution ever since the emergence of Christianity, sometimes to the point of being martyred for their faith.
The schisms of the Middle Ages and especially the Protestant Reformation, sometimes provoked severe conflicts between Christian denominations to the point of persecuting each other.
In the 20th century, Christians have been persecuted by various governments including the Islamic Ottoman Empire in the form of the Armenian Genocide, the Assyrian Genocide and the Greek Genocide, as well as atheistic states such as the Soviet Union and North Korea. During World War II members of some Christian churches were persecuted in Nazi Germany for resisting Nazi ideology.
In more recent times, the Christian missionary organization Open Doors (UK) estimates that over 200 million Christians face persecution, particularly in Middle Eastern countries such as Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

大江天主堂（天草市天草町）ーガルニエ神父と信者たちが力を合わせて完成させた

大江天主堂（天草市天草町）
遠く海が望める丘の上に建つ大江天主堂
天草の大江にある天主堂です。遠く海が望める丘の上にあります。ガルニエ神父が私財を投じて、昭和初期にこの白亜の天主堂を建てられた。ロマネスク建築である。
カトリック大江教会のあゆみ
天草に最初にキリスト教を伝えたのはイエスズ会宣教師ルイス・デ・アルメイダである。彼は1566年に志岐に入り、その3年後には河内浦(河浦)で宣教した。その後、キリスト教に入信する人が増え、1591年にはコレジオ(神学校)も加津佐から天草に移され、6年あまり続いた。ヨーロッパ見聞を終え帰国した天正遺欧使節の4人もここで学んだ。
その後、280年近くにおよんだ苦難に満ちた禁教の時代、1614年に宣教師が追放され、同年アダム荒川が富岡で殉教した。教会としての組織はもはや存在し得ず、キリシタンは隠れ部屋でおらしょ(祈り)を唱え、潜伏しながら、水方(みずかた)を中心にして信仰を守り伝えていった。
1805年、大江村、今富村、崎津村、高浜村で5,205人の潜伏キリシタンが発覚する。このときは、心違いとして扱われ、処罰はまぬかれた。
1873(明治3)年、長崎神の島の漁師西政吉が大江村に来た。彼の教話に耳を傾けた道田嘉吉がまず入信し、その後数人が長崎に渡り、キリスト教の教えを学んで洗礼を受けた。こうした人々を中心に信仰共同体の基礎が形づくられ、旧キリシタン外国宣教会の司祭も来島して、旧キリシタンを探すことから始めて、教会は次第に成長していった。
1892年、ガルニエ神父が来島した。彼は約49年間大江教会の主任司祭をつとめ(最初の35年間は崎津教会を兼任)、貧しい人、弱き者の友としてキリストの愛を生きた。
1907年8月、東京新詩社を創立した与謝野寛(鉄幹)とともに、北原白秋、木下杢太郎、吉井勇、平野万里の5人の若き詩人が大江のガルニエ神父を訪ねた。この紀行は東京二六新聞に『五足の靴 』と題して発表された。
明治以降の大江最初の聖堂は1879年、マルモン神父の時代に建てられた。その後、今の司祭館の場所に聖堂が建てられた。
現在の聖堂は1933年、ガルニエ神父と当時の信者たちが心と力を合わせて完成させた。設計施工を担当したのは鉄川与助である。
ガルニエ神父は来日後、故国フランスの土を一度も踏むことなく、1941年82歳の生涯を終えた。
時代は移り、人々の暮らしは変わっても、大江の里にはいまも変わらぬ信仰が息づいている。
