JUSTO TITLE ARTWORK

In Search of the Samurai Saint

A tea ceremony master, a martial artist, a successful businessman, a former actress, and a young descendant connect the dots to tell the story of Blessed Justo Takayama Ukon, a 16th-century samurai warlord who was beatified in 2016. In partnership with EWTN's digital platform, EWTN+ the project aims to uncover a deeper understanding of Japan's Samurai Saint.
