"Baskin Robbins always finds out. Baskin Robbins don't play"🍦⛩🇯🇵 (Week 38)

皆さんこんにちは! 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!

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...

The Beginning of the End ⛩ (Week 97)

Have you ever just walked outside and been like, wow, you know, it’s really really hot out here and it probably can’t get any hotter than this? And then you walk out the next day and realize it got even hotter... We’ll, if I had to sum up our week this past week, that’s how I’d describe it. Hachioji truly is 太陽の町. It’s been rough, but we’re hanging in there and having some fun along the way. In other news, this past week was transfers, and there has been some major changes. First off, I’m still here in Hachioji (blessings from Heaven), but Elder Gill transferred to my old area Yokosuka, and my new companion is the one and only Elder Matsunaga from Yamaguchi-Ken. On top of that, our zone has doubled in size and now we cover the entire Machida Stake rather than just the western half. Yea, I just thought last transfer was busy. We’ve been running around like chickens with our heads cut off working with Stake leaders, organizing all our districts, planning zone conference, and coordinatin...

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

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...
