Christmas Socks for Missionaries

In Japan, New Year is more celebrated than Christmas. There is no holiday for Christmas and Christmas Day is another ordinary working day.

However, for the Christmas season, the town is beautifully decorated with many lights and you hear Christmas songs. People enjoy Christmas cake after dinner.

In my family, we have a family tradition. We give pairs of socks to all the missionaries in our mission area.

The tradition started more than 30 years ago when my mother started a business.
