The South Will Rise Again🔥💯 (Week 79)

Howdy howdy! Hope y’all had a mighty fine week! The past week on this side of the planet has been one of tough goodbyes but lots of excitement for the future. Last Thursday we had transfers! Unfortunately I had to say goodbye to the mountainous paradise that is Kohoku and good bye to the amazing people that live there. It wasn’t easy, but there will be quite the plethora of good times to come! After six consecutive transfers, I have officially kissed my Yokohama thunder-thighs goodbye and am now serving in the area of Yamato as zone leader in the Fujisawa east zone. Super excited for the new area and the opportunity to work with such amazing people!

Honestly, I can’t remember too much of what happened this past week. Transfer week is always a bit of a blur, but since Thursday, we have had quite the adventure. So, on Thursday, I made the transfer to Yamato and teamed up with my new companion - none other than the legendary Elder Harrison from Texas (hence the subject line of this weekly email, lol). He’s the greatest and we’re gonna have quite the ho-down together. When I arrived, we went straight to Planning. Planning for investigators and planning for the zone (we have zone Conference coming up this Wednesday so there’s plenty of planning to be done, haha). That took most of the day. On Friday, we had the opportunity of going up to Kichijoji for New District Leader/Sister Training Leader/Zone Leader training. Received lots of great revelation and it’s always a pleasure to be with President Warnick. On Saturday, we had a couple other meetings, and on Sunday, we had church. The members here are way awesome and I’m excited to work with all of them! In between all of those moments, we have been meeting with tons of people and trying to talk to as many new ones as we can. We’ve seen lots of miracles and I’m way excited for the future!
 
Not too much to report on this week, and amongst all the craziness, we didn’t have too much time to take pictures, but I’ll try to do better next week! All that matters is, the Church is true, missionary life is the best life ever, and I feel blessed to be a part of it. Hope everyone has a great week and sends me lots of emails about it! 愛しています!

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.  

Temple P-Day (Week 32)

Note from Barry (catching up for last week): Dylan had a temple P-day this week and said he didn't have time to write an email, but he did send a quick note to His mother and I to let us know that he is doing fine and that he received the vitamins and supplements that we sent to help boost his immune system.  We also received a quick note from a retired American doctor who lives in Japan and serves as a medical consultant for the missionaries.  He said that Elder Sadler saw a doctor on Friday who specializes in Bell's palsy and that everything is progressing as normal.  He is taking an antiviral and some vitamin B. Thank you for your continued prayers. Here is a picture that another missionary's mother posted on Facebook this week:

Sunshine, Palm trees, and Freedom🌞🌴 (Week 42)

Hey everyone! I have actually zero time to write this week because we are going to Costco and shopping on base today. Way excited! Yesterday, we had interviews with president Warnick so p-day got moved to Tuesday. We will still have another temple p-day in two weeks though so two Tuesday p-days this transfer. Fun fun. Anyway, don't have time to write much but we took lots of pictures this week so they can tell the story. I love you all!!!!!! Btw, Happy 4th of July. I'm so glad I get to serve on Yokosuka base this 4th of July with some of the people who work so hard and sacrifice so much for our country. We are beyond blessed to live in such a wonderful country with the various freedoms we enjoy. I would encourage everyone to give that some thought. Never take it for granted. Happy 'Murica Day!
