Flag

Located in Kurume City Fukuoka Prefecture and established in 2006. The embroidered ceremonial flag has sky blue background with a gold, silver, red and green emblem and horizontally written silver kanji school corporation name in gold fringe. The college emblem is based on the motif of the Eucharist in Shiro Amakusa's battle flag, surrounded by lily flowers and leaves, and was invented by the founder, Mr. Ichiro Ide. The flag is the "Eucharistic banner" and this flag is the flag of the Misericordia (Mercy Group). The Misericordia was usually placed in Portugal and in the countries where the Portuguese were advancing, and it was a college emblem that preached love for one's neighbor.
