The Dining team are lots of fun as you can see. On our last week they invited us to dinner. How special! Masa, pictured centre, was the chief organizer behind the event.
Thank you Masa, and thank you to the whole team for your hard work and enjoyable evening. (Pictured: is Ko-Hei, A-ch, Masa and on the right, Seiji.)
The scene that greeted us as we entered the room. Twenty, eager, young Bethel brothers intently simmering, deep-frying, chopping, assembling and variously preparing a meal fit for the finest Japanese restaurant.
8pm dinner appointment . . . and as you can see we were punctual. Left to right: Seiji, Ake, Ko-Hei, Show-Hay, Rintaroo and of course me.
Ojimi got up early to make miso soup and it was delicious.
The workers: From far end: Masa, Watana, A-ch, Tomo, and Yannamoto.
The supervisors: back row - Seiji, Ake and Dii.

Johnny, arrives at 9:15 sfter having served dinner to the bindery shift workers in the Printery.
Sorry for my big head :)
As you can probably tell, working with this great team of vibrant young dining room volunteers was great, and sharing the experience with my new driend, Doreen, from Brooklyn Bethel made it all the more enjoyable. Thank you Doreen.
The whole gang!
After we (Doreen and I and our husbands) left the room and were walking away, the best sound of all, the brothers cheered and gave themselves a well earned round of applause for a job well done!!!
Wish you could all have been here with us!
