October's FHE at the Honbu fell on Halloween this year. Wards and Branches often have Halloween parties complete with decorations, but the tradition of a lot of costumes and trick-or-treating is not done in Japan. The AP's prepared a lesson on the Plan of Happiness. The Thomas' had a fun game of "pin the facial features on a pumpkin". The blindfolded person was to listen to the directions given by the crowd. It was a funny game and everyone had a great time. The Jahanas' prepared the treat. Gary and I didn't have to do anything except Gary conducted the meeting.
Everyone loves Elder Lay, our AP. The gal sitting the the chair is Bishop Sitoh's daughter who has been living in Utah. She has been less active for the past few years but since coming back to Japan, she is attending more. We were glad she came to FHE.

The lesson by Elders Lay and Narita.
These are non-members who came to FHE. They accepted a Book of Mormon right in the middle of the lesson.
Sister Kumagai had a pretty good lookin' pumpkin by the time she was finished.
Our non-member friend had a great time playing the game.
Elder Aiura trying hard to listen to instructions from the crowd.
We laughed at his funny looking pumpkin.
I love this picture. Sis Sugawara (Sendai Stake President's wife) was shutting out the noise in the room to hear the steady voice of her husband who was telling her exactly what to do. We love the Sugawaras and appreciate their attending FHE every month with their Stake members.

The treats were beautiful to look at and delicious to eat. Sis Jahana is a Japanese flower arranger and has an eye for beauty. The treat was Jello with fruit cocktail in the bottom of the cup decorated with a chunk of banana and kiwi, whipped cream and chocolate sauce drizzled on top. It was a fall treat for sure.
Later that Halloween night, Elders Ellis, Taylor and Cannon made a visit to our front door before bedtime.
