July 18, 2019. Today we had our first District council meeting after most recent transfer day. After our district lunch, Sister Lee and I were invited to come along to a Seniors Home to sing couple songs, one in English and one in Japanese. The Romanized lyrics for the Japanese song is shown in the photo above. It was a crash course rehearsal. Practiced couple times and off we went. Since the Seniors home was relatively close, we walked. This activity kind of reminded me when we went to the Nursing home in my home town, Hamilton, MT, and sang Christmas carols. The meeting was short, only 2 songs, but was wonderful. Even though Sister Lee and I are in our 60's, we literally are youngsters in the room. I learned later that one lady, whose mind was very sharp and who was very talkative, is 100 years old. Despite the lack of practice, I guess we did well enough that they would like us to come back.
