"Baskin Robbins always finds out. Baskin Robbins don't play"🍦⛩πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅ (Week 38)

ηš†γ•γ‚“γ“γ‚“γ«γ‘γ―! This past week flew by. Can't believe it's already p-day again. It flew by way too fast. We also get transfer emails this week, so it's exciting! I have have been in Kunitachi for three transfers so the odds of me transferring are getting pretty high. Kunitachi has been fantastic though. Great members and a great area. This past week in Kunitachi has been great. We were pretty busy all week, but got to see lots of cool miracles. Last Saturday, we visited an old people's home and did some good "old-fashioned" (pun intended) service. We sang some songs, taught a little bit of English, and folded some origami. It was a blast. On Sunday, we had a wonderful church meeting and then got to do some more service with a near by college. The students have an organized group that goes out every Sunday night to pick up trash around the college and the station in Kunitachi. We got to go out with them last night and do some service and talk to some way cool people. One guy I talked to was a Spanish major so I got to use the little bit of Spanish that I know lol. I have forgotten a ton of Spanish as I have been studying Japanese the past several months. Anyway, he was a way cool guy. We swapped Facebooks and plan to meet up sometime. It's amazing to see how prepared people are when we are able to come in under the right circumstances.

If you were wandering about the title of this email, I will explain. On the 31st day of the month, Baskin Robbins has a 31 percent off deal that missionaries love to take part in. We all went to Baskin Robbins as a district last month. It was awesome. Had some good ice cream, but forgot to take pictures. And if you don't get the reference, go watch the movie Antman.

Shoutout to all my friends and family out there. Thanks for all the love and support. You guys are the best. Just keep swimming! 愛しています!

Little America (Week 24)

Another week of miracles in Japan! Not much time to write today, but that's okay because everything eventful that happened this week, happened within a span of like 2 days. So I'll get right to the point. Monday through Thursday was spent doing a lot of streeting and a lot of housing. On Thursday , we had zone meeting. It went really well. I was able to learn a lot and receive some personal revelation for myself as a missionary. Directly after zone meeting, Elder Duke and I got the opportunity to go on splits with the zone leaders, Elder Carrasco (from Mexico) and Elder Gonzales (from Columbia). The cool part is that our zone leaders just so happen to be in the Fussa area (basically tiny America) which is where the Fussa Air Force base is, so we got to talk to a lot of Americans. All of them were also in the Air Force so it was a way cool experience. I hope I will be able to serve in that area one day down the road. Anyway, I will move on to one of the miracles we saw while I...

MTC Week 1

Wednesday September 21, 2016 My p-day in the MTC is every Wednesday so expect emails then. I can read emails any day but I can only reply on p-day. I will admit, the first week of The MTC was really really tough. It was incredibly frustrating trying to learn the language, and trying to adapt to my new, very scheduled lifestyle. Since Sunday, I've been able to settle in a little more though and come to terms with having to be patient with myself as I learn the language and further learn the Gospel. On our second day in the MTC, we received our first investigator, Ohira san, who we have been teaching in Japanese! The first lesson was a total bomb shell, but as we have learned to stop trying to rely on ourselves and our own teaching skill, and start relying on the Spirit to teach, we have seen much success in just these few days. My companion is Jones Chōrō. We are not very much alike at all, but we work well together and generally keep each other in balance. Chab Chōrō is our dis...

Plainer than white bread πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅⛩ (Week 86)

γŠγ―γ‚ˆγ†γ”γ–γ„γΎγ™! Hope everyone had a great week! Things haven’t been too interesting over here in this side of the world recently. I think that leadership has two sides to it: a ministering side and an administering side. Elder Jaeckel and I have definitely been able to see the importance of the administrative side this past week. With the beginning of a new transfer, zone conference coming up this week, and the various other leadership meetings we attend, needless to say, things have been pretty busy. Despite all those things though, we have been blessed to be able to get out and see the beauty of the Lord’s vineyard. To start with, we’ve been able to talk to tons of people this week. The Lord is preparing people all the time and it’s always amazing to be led to those people and blessed to see the miracle. One way cool experience that happened this week was with our new homie, Fei. He is from China, fluent in Mandarin, Japanese, and English, and a hustler on the court. So our story begins...
