#prayforelderbudge (Week 93)

Yo! What’s up everybody?

It’s been a good week over here in the Land of the Rising Sun. My Northern Irish companion and I have been busy with conferences, leadership meetings, splits with other missionaries in the zone, and everything in between. Nevertheless, it’s always an adventure and this week was no exception.

So the setting was last Saturday night around 8:30pm at Hachioji Station. Now for anyone who has ever served in Hachioji, as you may well know, after 8pm Hachioji can get a little “バビロン的” (in the words of the great President Warnick). So we are out there just trying to fulfill our purpose and invite others to come unto Christ by advertising our free English Class. Normally what we do is, go to a big station near by and try to hand out as many fliers as we can. So while this is going on, an nice guy with a high dollar sense of fashion walks up to me and asks what’s going on. Now Hachioji already has a little bit louder vibe at that time of night so I was pretty wary during the contact, but I told him who I was and mentioned our English class, and since this guy was obviously not from America I asked him who he was. He said was from Saudi Arabia and here in Japan studying some type of engineering and because of that he wants us to come to his house and teach him English. He also made it very clear that he has a huge house near Hachioji and two high-baller cars that might or might not consist of a Ferrari and a Nissan GTR. By this point in the conversation, this guy had peaked my interest and seemed interested in what we had to offer so we set up a time to meet this Thursday. We’ve been in contact and things are going good so far so I’ll let you how legit this guy is next week lol.

Anyway, lots of stuff going but not nearly enough time to write it all. Either way, the work rolls forward and I’m grateful to be a part of it. Hope everyone has a good week!

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 ...
