We had displayed 24 flower arrangements this time, not only by couple of church members but also joining effort by Ms.Lin's students.  The outcome was unbelievable, marvelously beautiful. Thank you and Thank you again, I have no words to express my thanks to your all.  Truly, friendship through flower. (9-6-2014)

Our Sensei Ms. Lin came to preview our display and arranged one arrangement on Friday after noon to support us.   After ms. Lin's magic touch the show room became so magnificent. (9-6-2014)
