To the top of Takao πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅⛰πŸ§—‍♂️ (Week 76)

By

ηš†ζ§˜、γŠγ―γ‚ˆγ†γ”γ–γ„γΎγ™! So, you remember last week how I wrote a pretty short email because we went to Costco and didn’t have any time and I said I’d do better next week? Well, next week has now arrived and instead of spending all my time writing you all a well worded email, we’ll be hiking Mt. Takao today. Since time is short once again, I’ll try to cover the highlights as I sit here on the train. γ‚ˆγ‚γ—γγŠι‘˜γ„γ—γΎγ™。

1. P day last week was good. Costco and lots of pizza.
2. Went on exchanges with the zone leaders and had a great time. Learned about the importance of being real and how we can more effectively work together as a zone.
3. Taught English class which is always a lot of fun. Our students are the best.
4. Our English class students took Elder Low and I out to lunch at a sushi place that was far more expensive than we felt comfortable letting them pay for us. But, they refused our money and we all had a good time with the best sushi I have her placed upon my tongue.
5. Got to do that thing that PMG talks about as the “ideal teaching situation”. A member had a friend who he invited to his home to meet with him and us. It was a great contact and a lot of fun.
6. Later realized that the same guy we met at the members house was also a former investigator who we had been trying to get in contact with for a while but never could. Huge miracle.
7. Met with a good friend of ours from Taiwan. He’s not from Taipei (sorry Sister Johnson), but he is a way cool guy who is living here in Japan for about a year for work. He goes by the name Mars, which in my personal opinion, is pretty legit. We’ll hopefully be meeting with him again this week so it’s pretty exciting.
8. And it came to pass that President Warnick said, let there be sisters, and it was done. The Kohoku/Kanagawa area is officially no longer Sister missionary-less. The new sisters are Sister Berghout and Sister Sepulcri. Interesting names but awesome sisters. Looking forward to working with them.
9. Had a Kohoku Ward game night. Had a pretty good turnout. Played a couple good games of Volleyball and had a lot of fun.
10. Had Church on Sunday. Realized how far my Japanese has come and how much the Lord has blessed me to be able to learn.
11. Today, we will be meeting up with some past companions and hiking Takao. It’s gonna be a lot of fun and I’ll try to get some good pics.
 
In all honesty, the past week flew by and I don’t remember a whole lot of it, but it was bomb. Always an adventure and I thank the Lord that I am able to experience the ride. I love you all and hope everyone has a good week!

Thinking Out Loud 🎸 ⛩ (Week 54)

By
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 ...
