This year has seen many former staff come back to visit Zenrinkan, including the Lammers family.
It is 60 years this year since they first set foot in Japan, so they came back to Japan to celebrate. The Lammers came to Japan as missionaries and worked at the old Zenrinkan for many years as language teachers.
It is wonderful to see so many familiar faces coming through the Zenrinkan doors.

Summer Party
Today we had the annual summer party. As always, there was a bazaar and flea market, as well as various snacks for sale made by the Zenrinkan staff.
This year's International Lunch was as high a standard as always and all the guests had their fill of food from England, America, Bangladesh, Tanzania, Korea, China, Colombia, Mexico and more besides.
Sadly, everyone was too busy eating and serving to take any pictures, so the whole day went by without a single snap!
Being the same day as the Hachimangu festival, we were a little worried there would be a lack of guests, but in the end it turned out to be a record turn out and a wonderfully successful day.
