With Dillingham-shimai (Sister) in the Missionary Training Center, showing our respective destinations. | With my first in-country companion, Wahlquist-shimai, as well as our mission president and his wife, President and Sister Nishihara. |
|
|
With Arnott-shimai, as well as one of our investigators. | Matsui-shimai, my first Japanese companion! |
|
|
Konno-shimai, my first junior! | A trip back to the mission home, to pick up my trainee, Dickman-shimai. |
|
|
The somewhat ironically-named Takamatsu-shimai. (The characters in her name indicate a tall tree.) | Trying to blend in a little, with McNeil-shimai. (OK, so we knew we'd never blend in . . .) |
 |  |
| Yoshimoto-shimai, in front of our map wall. | Yoshihara-shimai, who wasn't a full-time missionary, but who accepted the temporary call, because we were one sister short. |
 |  |
| Kikuchi-shimai, at a dinner given for my farewell. | Companionless at last, saying good-bye to the Nishiharas at the bullet train. |
