Entering the MTC

By
We flew out to Salt Lake after Dylan was set apart and spent a few days seeing some church sites.  On Wednesday September 14, 2016 Dylan entered the Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah to begin his service as a missionary.  Elder Sadler will be in the MTC until November 14th and will be doing intense study of the scriptures and the Japanese language and alphabets (yes, alphabets, plural - there are two of them).  He will be learning how to share the gospel of Jesus Christ and he will learn a little about Japanese culture.

Life is like an old-time rail journey: delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.” It has been truly h...

Typhoons, Lady’s Baseball, and Zone Conference⛩🇯🇵 (Week 98)

By
Well, it’s been quite the week over here in the Land of the Rising Sun. Once again, we’ve been stretched pretty thin with not a whole lot of time to come up for air, but it’s been a blast and we’ve been blessed to see all kinds of miracles. To start with, the beginning of last week was all meetings and planning for Zone Conference this past Thursday . Elder Matsunaga and I and the STL’s gave a zone training on becoming experts in PMG which went really well and lined up perfectly with President Warnick’s trainings, and then Elder McDonald and I did a musical number with President Warnick in guitar which went as well as it could with zero practice lol. Either way though, we sang “I’ll go where you want me to go” and the Spirit was strong, so that’s all that matters. Next pretty big event this past week was our typhoon this past Saturday . We talked to some pretty concerned Japanese people and got lots of calls from leadership, but everything was completely fine. I tried explain...
