間も無くWhite-Fun 駅🎄⛩🎅 (Week 67)

Merry Christmas! ¡Feliz Navidad! メリークリスマス! What's happening everybody!? Sorry it's been forever but the good news is, I'm still alive! It's been a very eventful past few weeks but long story short, I'm now in Kohoku with some awesome missionaries (ex. Elder Budge) and an awesome companion named Elder Low. Today, I am suffering from a severe case of writer's block and I honestly have no idea what to write, but things have been good. We have been crazy busy with Christmas parties, Sacrament meetings, emergency transfers, and all the other holly jolly activities of this wonderful season. Also had a great opportunity to Skype home yesterday morning as well. I love my family and I love modern technology that allows me to call home twice a year. I love the Christmas season and I love being a missionary here in Japan sharing the true meaning of Christmas with the Japanese people. Second and last Christmas as a missionary but it's been a lot of fun!

Sorry I couldn't write a decent weekly this week, but everyone can be content knowing that it's been a Merry Christmas and I love you all (Elder Budge loves you all as well). We've got some fun activities planned today so I will end here, but I hope everyone has a great Christmas and I'll see ya next year! Keep being the greatest and send me emails about your Christmas (dylan.sadler@myldsmail.net)! I love to hear from everybody! 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
