The Edo Shogunate banned Christianity and severely punished those who violated the ban. However, Christians who refused to abandon their faith continued to pray in secret at night. Many of these people were poor farmers who barely had enough to eat. They believed that if they maintained their faith, they would go to heaven in the next life, and they continued to pray despite the dangers.International Buyers - Please Note:### **Notice to International Buyers**1. **For U.S. Buyers**Import duties are already included in the item price and shipping cost.
