Shake 'n Bake!πŸ†πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅⛩ (Week 43)

Minasan, konnichiwa! Hope everyone had a fantastic week! Also sorry for the super short email last week. We had like zero time so I did my best haha. Anyway, this past week has been great here in Yokosuka. We have been super busy working with members and doing various other missionary things. Because we are serving in a military area, we are very limited as to what we can do as far as finding investigators to teach, so our main priority is work with and strengthen the members. And let me just say, I love the members here. They are all so great and feed us all the time. We have dinner appointments like every day. It's a good problem to have I guess! But yea, things are going great here in Yokosuka.

One fun experience I had this past week was last Saturday during a Zone blitz here in Yokosuka. For the first half of the blitz I was able to go and dendo with Elder Johnson. He is the elder I replaced
when I transferred to Kunitachi. He is a great missionary and we talked to some way cool people. For the second half of the blitz, I was with our zone leader, Elder Sequiera, from SΓ£o Paulo Brazil. Elder
Sequiera and I were doing some steeting at a near by park and we said hello to three homies who were leaving as we were walking in. They were kind of doing that thing where they are half turned around and talking to you but at the same time walking away (all you missionaries serving in Japan will understand), and right as they were turning away, like 150 college aged girls walked up and started talking to us. They were pretty interested in us until they found out we were just missionaries haha. After we introduced ourselves, they all left except for one girl who was already Christian. She was fluent in English and we talked to her for a minute about the Book of Mormon and how it can give us guidance and answer the questions we might have about life. She was way interested and accepted a Book of Mormon. Hopefully the Sisters can get into contact with her. We didn't have a whole lot of time to talk to her because all her friends bailed and I felt kinda bad for her, but it was a good experience. It is so awesome to see the miracles that God places in our lives every day.

I hope this week's email was a little better. I'm not very good at writing and honestly I don't like it very much. I love communicating with all my fans, but if there was any way other than writing, I would take the other way. It's a weekly struggle lol. Anyway, I love all my family and friends out there and I appreciate the love and support every week. Thanks for all the wonderful emails this past week. Keep being awesome! 愛しています

Thinking Out Loud 🎸 ⛩ (Week 54)

Hello! How was everyone's week? This past week was a blast here in Yokosuka. With everything from bowling to basically swimming through the rain. The missionary life is great and I wouldn't have it any other way! For all those who aren't missionaries out there, I would recommend! It's been the best year of my life so far and things are looking greater and greater all the time. This past week, we did a lot, but I'll share a couple of our adventures. Last Monday, we decided to go bowling on base again. I didn't play nearly as well as the previous week, but it was fun haha. In the evening, we had a lesson planned with our investigator Manuel. Long story short, the lesson fell through, so we hit the streets. Talked to some way cool people and made some good contacts. Tuesday was lots of Streeting and Japanese Class. Fun stuff. On Wednesday , we did a lot of Streeting during the day and had dinner with the Cribb family. They took us out to Chili's in base and ...
