Que no pare la fiesta! (Week 45)

皆さんこんにちは! How was everyone's week? This past week went by so fast that I can't even remember much of what happened, but it was a great week! Last Tuesday was temple p-day. Always a good experience, especially the hour and a half train ride into Tokyo at rush hour in the mornings
haha. On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday we did the usual missionary stuff: talked to lots of people, visited with several ward members, planned some stuff, and taught some English. On Saturday, we had a big Ward barbecue on base. There was lots of good food and it was way fun.
Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures from the barbecue, but just be satisfied with the fact that it was great. Sunday was Elder Palomino's last one as a missionary. Two years is a long time, but it
seems to go by so fast. I'm glad I had the opportunity to serve with Elder Palomino before he goes home. We became really good friends and it will be tough to see him go. Today is p-day again yaaay! We are going on base with one of our homies to play some beach volleyball and have another barbecue. I'm pretty excited (partially because we get to wear normal clothes today haha). Anyway, it's been a good week!

Big shoutout to everyone for all the great emails this week! It's always good to hear from home and know that everyone is still alive and well. Hope everyone has a great week and I look forward to hearing all about it! I love you all!

Japanese English is the best!

Thanks for the Ride⛩🏆 (Week 102 - Last P-day!!!)

Today is a day of mixed emotions. As we come to the end of this two year adventure they call a mission, my heart is filled with nothing but gratitude and joy. The past two years have been an experience like no other, but I’m just grateful that the Lord saw fit to let me be a part of it and see his hand bless the lives of folks through me. There is a quote I saw once that I think sums things up pretty well. “Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he has been robbed. Most putts don’t drop. Most beef is tough. Most children grow up to be just people. Most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration. Most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. 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)

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...

Set Apart

On Saturday September 10th, 2016 Dylan was set apart as a full time missionary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints by our stake president, Peter M. Johnson. There were a lot of family members there and it was an exciting and emotional day.
