Listen "Observations: Blooming Cherries and Christian life"
Episode Synopsis
It is early spring in Japan, the time when cherry trees bloom. Even in Tokyo, the world’s largest metropolis, nature calls us to reflect on beauty and its passing.

Father William Grimm, who lives in Japan, shares some thoughts on this.Produced by Binu AlexFor news in and about the Church in Asia, visit www.ucanews.com
