Anybody remember this old wampaku Choro? Probably not since I'm waaaay down in the south. Since the storm hit us so bad, I was thinking about pulling up roots and moving to Utah. Any advice? I'm the only peson in my family with a house left. It needs alot of work, but it has a roof. The eye of the storm went directly over my parents home and took it with it. We live on the MS coast and we don't even have a Mcdonald's left. Not trying to get any pity, as a matter of fact thanks so much for all those in the Church who donated so much. The Church was the first ones there. Unfortunately I wasn't able to help my own town, but I am serving. I'm in the Desert right now serving in the war on terror and can't wait to get home and help there. Like my Hammond, La brother I'd like to thank everyone for the prayers, Heavenly Father's making it alright. Also being over here I've been able to follow the Prophet's challenge and read the Book of Mormon and it's a little late but, 15 years after my mission and I can now truely say I believe it and understand it.
Say hi if you like, but I only have 2 more months here. My first Christmas away from my girls, pretty sad!

Does anyone have any contact with, or know the contact info of Weiler Choro? He would have served from about 1975 to 1977 or so.

I've came home from Hokkaido in Feb of 2003, just wondering if anybody knew if Iida shimai was still active (she came back after 7 months of working with her). Also, we worked with Nakamura Mutsumi san for 7 months and she was so close to accepting baptisim. Anybody know if she is still investigating.

Andrew,
I talked to them just as they were leaving the MTC for their mission. They told me they are accessible via:
two phone numbers for them.
81-92-525-8254
81-93-471-3385
One of the phone numbers is the temple down south and the other is their Chonan's phone number. His name is Yoshiki.
If you do get in touch with them tell them how sorry that I am that I haven't stayed in touch and when you get home I will verify best contact info with you and then I will call them. Please tell them that I love them very much and that I have not stopped thinking about them.
Hope this helps.
Mike Thompson
PS. Tell your 'uchi no yatsu' that I said hello.

I just wanted to let all my old missionary buddies know that the Abels survived Hurricane Katrina fine. We live on the northshore of Lake Pontchartrain - about 25 miles north and west of New Orleans. While the storm was the worst I have ever seen in 42 years of living here, we were really fortunate in Hammond.
When we first emerged from our house after the sustained winds of 100 MPH died down, we were shocked to see many of the trees down and the number of houses with trees in them. We live in town and all the streets were blocked with uprooted and broken oak and pine trees. However, we all got to work with our chainsaws and cleared roads, tarped roofs, and cleared driveways. While the entire southeastern Louisiana area was without power, we live near the downtown area and got electricity after four days.
As no phones were working, we went house to house to visit members and assess their needs. The Church sent in commodities and we distributed them to the members in need and to the community. You can bet that your humanitarian and fast offering funds have been well utilized here.
While we were lucky here, it is much worse to the south and east of us. I went with a ward work group to Covington/Mandeville about 20 miles to our east. Almost every home sustained severe tree and wind damage, some homes with three and four trees in them. The roads were almost impassable and there was almost no power one week after the storm. I can only imagine what the areas farther east were like.
But, we southerners are resilient and we will rebuild. I am grateful that the church has been such a great help to us.
Take care --
The Ron Abel Family

Hello all. I wondered if anyone remembers Wainai Michiyo Shimai. When I taught her she lived in Toyohira, but I can't remember where she moved to. I tried to email her recently and she has changed her email address. If anyone has it could they email her and ask her to contact me. I have wanted to contact her for some time, but have been unable to find her address. She should still have my email address. Thank you for your help.

For those of you who care, Komadai Tomakomai High School has just won the national baseball championship 5-3 over a Kyoto team. This is the first time a team has won the championship in two consecutive years for something like 56 years. Apparently Hokkaido used to be the laughing-stock of the High School baseball world over there, but Tomakomai has turned them into a powerhouse.

I just wanted to thank you all for the tremendous response to my request for help with "I am a child of God." Our primary children are going to really enjoy doing this. The primary presidency is very excited about doing this and extends their love and appreciation to each of you for helping our children learn a little more about our world and how we are all truly God's children. Your willingness to help me and a group of children you have never met really shows how wonderful this church is. Again, thank you all and may God bless each of you more than He already does.

Does anyone remember or know the words to "I am a child of God" in Japanese? I remember the first verse but since I haven't sung it in 15+ years I'm not confident that I have the rest of it correct. Our primary presidency wants the children to sing the song in Japanese, French and English for a Sacrament meeting program. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am curious to know if any of you have ever set up a time for someone to appear on live remote cameras in Sapporo. I was talking to my exchange student yesterday before she left to go home to Japan, and we're going to try it. The link for Sapporo is http://www.global.city.sapporo.jp/livecamera/live.html
There are at least 4 live cameras in Sapporo.
