Please send along with this form copies of recommendations from churches which will encourage
other churches to support your missionary work. There are churches which will not allow a
visiting missionary to speak unless a church recommendation can be shown. Since it is impos
sible for any one person to know all Christians in the world, this recommendation by a respon
sible New Testament church is a vital help in persuading others of your worthiness and the value
of your mission. Mission Services stands ready to help you inform HORIZONS readers about
your church recommendations. Since the church is sending you to the mission field (Acts 13:1-3)
and will help provide the necessary needs on the field, naturally the church should share the
credit in your missionary ministry. One of the ways that the church can do this is to share their
conviction regarding your missionary ministry with others. Certainly, their words will help
convince others regarding the worthiness of your work. Please help MISSION SERVICES to
spread your news through HORIZONS, Packets and Slide library by sending your church recom
mendations as soon as possible. Thanks. Send what you have now, and the others later.

Barricklow Recruit For Hiroshima
( Picture
Hiss Carolyn Barricklow
Carolyn shares her life story:" At the age of 9, a Junior in
Christian Service Camp, X was greatly impressed by the need of
Japan and the Orient as Fumiko Higa( from Okinawa ) presented her
search and life for Christ* A compelling attraction for Japan
grew through contacts with missionaries from Japan at Whitewater
Christ^ian Service Camp near Vevay, Indiana. I continued studying
and praying, entering Ozark Bible College(Joplin, Mo.) I majored in
music and New Testament, but continued with missions classes and in
Lord's Reapers*
" After my graduation at OBC ( with thw B.Th. degtee), I spent
one summer in intensive linguistics study at the Wycliffe Bible
Translators* Slimmer Inistitute of Linguistics. I taught phonetics,
one
English and music at Ozark Bibl- College for oiae year, and then
the Lord provided the trip to Japan for which I had prayed: I
became a part of the "Ohio Singers", who toured Japan the summer
of 1970 under the sponsorship of Paul and Kathleen Pratt* We met
many missionaries, talked personally with Japanese Christians, and
saw many avenues of service* My desire to serve in Japan was
confirmed and strengthened in a powerful way*
" I have spent two years serving the Southport Heights
Christian Church in Indianapolis, Indiana serving as music
director and youth sponsor*
" I hope to spend my first year entirely in language study*
I*m presently studying with tapes* Then, find a job teaching con
versational English or music in a Japanese school, using this as my
point of contact for Christ* I hope to use home Bible studies, and
Christian witness in extra-curricular activities as my main thrust
for evangelism."
'li'Page - 2 _ Barrlcklow Recruit For Hiroshima - Mar, 27, 1973 W.E.Mc)
Carolyn Ruth Barricklow was born August 6, 1946 at Milan, Indiana,
Both of her parents are very active as Christians. Her father Ralph
is a carpenter by trade and has served as deacon, elder, trustee,
Bible school teacher, SS. superintendent and treasurer. Her mother
is a high school teacher , Sue E. has served as Bible school teacher,
VBS teacher & Director, and pianist.
The elders at Indianapolis, Indiana write;" The Elders of
Southport Heights Christian Church wish to recommend Carolyn Barricklow
to serve as a missionary in her chosen field of Japan. Carolyn is a
dedicated Christian who has a great faith in Jesus Christ and because
of her faith she has dedicated her life to serving her Lord full time.
The Elders of Southport Heights Christian Church feel that Carolyn
Barricklow is worthy of support and recommend her for your consideration."
Other churches sharing in her support are; Villa Heights Christian
Church, Joplin, Mo.; Pleasant Ridge Christian Church, Aurora, Ind.;
Western Hills Church of Christ, Cincinnati, Ohio and others.
During the Spring of 1969 Carolyn talked briefly with Mrs.
Isabel Dittemore about her desire to go to Japan. Isabel said," Please
go to Hiroshima to work with the Kishi family." In 1970 Carolyn
visited Hiroshima with the "Ohio Singers" and met the Kishi family
and learned of the great opportunities thdre. Mrs. Lydia Kishi( a
former student at Cincinnati Bible Seminary, Cin.,Ohio) writing
about Carolyn's aims and the need for English Bible classes in
Hiroshima added:" It seems to me this is one of the signs that the
Lord supports our plans." Carolyn can help to fill the needs in
Hiroshima.
Carolyn writes," I have been accepted into the Graduate School of
the University of Cincinnati for study, and Lord willing, may also do
some graduate studies in music at C.B.S.". Japan deserves well educated
missionaries to command the respect of the educated Japanese. Carolyn
aims for a teacher's certificate in English from U.C..

HIROSHIMA CHRISTIAN MISSION No. 2 December, 1972
A CRY FOR PEACE
In the heart of Hiroshima today is the Peace Park. Besides
the Atom Bomh Dome and the Peace Museum, there are several other
significant structures. One is the Children's Peace Monument.
Decorated with thousands of folded paper cranes, it is a memor
ial to all young people who suffered from the homh. But it was
not erected until 1958 after the death of Sadako Sasaki.
Sadako was only two at the time the bomb exploded a mile from
her home, and she seemed unharmed. She appeared to be a normal,
healthy girl until she was in the sixth grade. Then suddenly she
developed the signs of leukemia so well known among survivors.
It is said that Sadako was very brave in the hospital. "I don't want to die," she
wrote in her diary. Yet she managed to laugh and sing when her classmates came to visit
her, and she folded paper cranes.
There is an old belief in Japan that a crane can live a thousand years, and if you'll
fold a thousand cranes, they will protect you from illness. Sadako did not have time or
strength to reach a thousand. In October of 1955# when she had made only 9^^, she died.
Her friends added the missing cranes and placed them all in the coffin with her.
When the young people of Hiroshima could no longer bear watching their friends die
slowly over the years, they rose up to do something about it. They would erect a monu
ment to Sadako in the Peace Park to remind the grown-up world what the bomb had done to
the first children who experienced it. They started a campaign to raise money from all
over Japan. They collected the miraculous sum of $20,000 and hired a famous sculptor in
Tokyo to design their moniiment for them.
It is a powerful memorial. Atop an oval granite pedestal, symbolizing
the fabled mountain to paradise, Sadako stands, holding a gol
den crane in her outstretched arms. Beneath her are color
ful paper leis, each a thousand cranes, that people from all
over the world have placed there as offerings.
At the base are the words; "This is our cry, this
our prayer: peace in the "world". ^
"For unto us a child is horn; unto us a
son is given: and the government shall
be upon his shoulder: and his name shall
he called VJonderful^ Counselor^ The
Mighty Godj the Everlasting Father^
The Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6
IS
, . RECRUIT FOR HIROSHIMA
Many have "been praying with us to the Lord of Harvest
that He raise up additional laborers to work in Hiroshima.
How we thank Him that already one young lady has responded
to this need. Her name is Carolyn Barricklow.
Carolyn accepted the Lord at an early age. With her
family she attended the Pleasant Ridge Christian Church,
near Aurora, Indiana. Her parents later moved to Moores
Hill and are active in the church of Christ there.
At Whitewater Christian Service Camp, Vevay, Indiana,
Carolyn learned much about Japan from an Okinawan Chris
tian, Pumiko Higa. At the tender age of 9s she decided to
go to Japan some day. Later at camp she made another im
portant decisionto go to Bible college.
She spent 5 years at Ozark Bible College and in May of
1969 graduated with a Bachelor of Theology in New Testa
ment and Music. Following a summer of training at the Sum
mer Institute of Linguistics at Norman, Oklahoma, she
taught piano, English and phonetics at Ozark.

MISS CAROLYN BARRICKLOW
During the spring of I969 Carolyn talked briefly with Mrs. Isabel Dittemore about her
desire to go to Japan. Isabel said, "Please go to Hiroshima to work with the Kishi fam
ily."
In the summer of 1970 Carolyn was able to go to Japan with a group of singers from the
Cincinnati Bible Seminary, In practically every conversation, she saw the need for Chris
tians working together in Japan. Her Japanese friends said, "Please come back. Come back
soon." She had already offered her life to God for Japan, and during that summer Japan
also won her heart.
/Hiroshima was one of the places which the singers visited. Carolyn met the Kishi fam
ily and learned of the great opportunities there. Later when Bill and Betty Turner were
talking with the Kishis about possibilities for future work, they agreed to begin praying
that the Lord would raise up others to work in Hiroshima. One plan was to offer English
Bible classes as a phase of evangelism through a Christian Center. Even before the Tur
ners left Japan for furlough, they received a card from ffrs. Kishi with the news that she
had gotten a letter from Carolyn Barricklow sayir^ that she planned to come to Japan and
wanted to teach English in a school using this as her point of contact for evangelism.
Lydia added, "It seems to me this is one of the signs that the Lord supports our plans."
When Carolyn learned the details about the plan for a Christian Center in Hiroshima,
she agreed to join in the effort to take the Gospel to the people there.
f She is ciurently working at nights in Cincinnati, and plans to take classes at the
ji University of Cincinnati to work toward getting a teacher's certificate in English. She
'/ is available for speaking dates, and would be glad to provide programs for children dur-
ing faith promise rallies or missions emphasis programs.

Dear Bill and Betty Turner, ' 1l|
I rejoice that there is such an in
crease in the number answering Christ's
call for reapers in the fields ready for
harvest. It makes me wish I were a
wealthy person that I might make large
gifts for the funds needed, hut I am an
85-year-old widow living alone on a lim
ited income, but my prayers are not lim
ited.
I have chosen your family as one to
send a gift to, as I believe it to be
one of the most important, as there have
been no Church of Christ/Christian mis
sionaries there since the first atom
bomb twenty-seven years ago. Your ex
periences in the Philippines and Japan
have well-prepared you for this new and
unusual "open door". Working with the
small nucleus already established, with
God's blessings, our prayers- and funds,
you will have a Christian Center of ut
most importance. I shall always be watch
ing for reports of your work and praying
that God will richly bless you.
Bess T. Jacumski (Mrs. John)
Georgetown, Ohio
Dear Friends in the Lord -
^e were impressed and moved by your
appeal "TARGET - HIROSHIMA" and feel led
to send you $100, This is sent as a me
morial to our dear son. Colonel Robert
Maynard, who'gave his life in Biafra
three years ago when his plane went
down as he was on a "mission of mercy,"
flying food and medicine to the starving
Biafrans. Our hearts have been Over
whelmed with sadness at giving him up,
but we have that blessed hope that he a-
waits us in the heavenly home. He was a
Christian in every way was an elder
here at Central Christian Church.
During World War II he was a Fighter
Pilot in the Pacific stationed on le-
Shima when the war ended. He was in com
mand of the squadron that accompanied
the Japanese fliers to the Philippine
islands for the signing of the surrender
to Gen. McArthur. When he returned home
in December, 19^5> he told us of flying
over Hiroshima a few days after the atom
bomb was dropped and witnessing the af
termath and complete destruction of the
city. He said it was heartrending to
see an entire city in ashes. Bob would
be very happy that we are sending you
this bit of money for such a noble pur
pose .
May God bless and guide you in the
days ahead.
Sincerely,
Mr. and Mrs. Lee C. Maynard
St. Petersburg, Flordia

The city of the atom bomb has never
had missionaries from Christian
