Masahiro Yuki is from Oita, Japan, where only 0.3% of the population is Catholic. Masahiro is the second of two brothers.
""I did my basic studies at Iwata High School and my higher education at Fukuoka University.
In my family only I am Catholic, since school I had a lot of interest in world history, especially about the Church and the Popes. And that's how I got to know the faith a little bit. My interest grew day by day, and that's how I came to Oita Cathedral. I met a priest, a former student of Bidasoa.
At the age of 18 I received the sacrament of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. That was a very special day in my life.
This is the joy I want to share with my family and so I pray to God that they will know Christ."".
