This past week we held special training for all the sisters in the mission. We now have 21 serving in the Kobe Mission.
Each sister received an "I Love Kobe" apron. Right before lunch everyone signed each others aprons. The morning consisted of talks and training by the President and Sister McIntyre and in the afternoon each sister companionship trained the others sister on a missionary principle from Preach My Gospel.
Apron signing
Happy sisters!
Preparing lunch at the mission home.
Eating lunch at the mission home.
It was a wonderful day with the sisters.
We also celebrated a few birthdays this month. Elder Bowman serves in Kobe and got a cookie.
January is mochi pounding month. The Kobe Ward makes mochi each year to welcome the new year. This year President took a turn at pounding while Sister McIntyre sets it.
Well if you've ever wondered if we have snow in the mission, the following pictures should answer that question. This year we have had a lot up on the Japan Sea side of the mission.
These pictures were taken as we entered Tottori prefecture on the way to Yonago.
At interviews in Takamatsu we celebrated a birthday with Elder Emery.
And back in Kobe Sister Wajima had a birthday too.
The first week of January we held our monthly Zone Leader Council in Kobe.
The first Sunday of January we started out the year by visiting a baptism in Tokushima for 87 year old Sister Ono.
On New Year's Day we had a sports activity in Ibaraki and a few of our former missionaries came to see us.
The year ended on a great note with December being our highest month for baptisms since the mission reopened over three years ago. We are confident 2011 will be a great year in the Kobe Mission.
