◆ FUN & JOY   
We enjoyed conversation over tea and refreshments, while creating  various objects. This term we change the style of dialogue as follows. A member will talk his/her favorite story. We listen to it, ask questions    and join in the discussion. We are always happy to welcome new friends.   It was thanks to our creative leaders of craft that we enjoyed ‘craft and dialogue’ session. Because  we had this session we could make gifts of support and sent them with message of prayer for recovery, after the disaster of 3/11, 2011, to the Himawari Children’s Workshop in Kesenuma, hit by  the tsunami. Ms. ITOH Junko, the leader, gladly distributed the gifts among the children. Since then an individual member has been connected and keep purchasing the cookies of the workshop every  month for continuous support. Also, we could make jointly a pair of table cloth as the gift of ‘thank  you and good bye’ for the teachers from the Philippines.      Our heartfelt “thank you” goes to our craft leaders who advanced our ‘craft-making and dialogue.’
