Well, here we are, sitting in our apartment on p-day with a fresh haircut, writing emails as a typhoon rolls over. Can’t remember if I mentioned it in last weeks email, but we got transfer calls and as fortune would have it, I was transferred to this the promised land of Hachioji. It was sad to say bye to Yamato, but I have heard the legends about Hachioji over the course of my whole mission, and now I have finally been blessed to serve here. So far, the legends have been holding up! I’ve been here like half a week and we’ve already had two shokuji’s, we’re working with an awesome recent convert who got baptized like the week before I came here, and there are people everywhere to talk to. The area is great, the members are awesome, and I am excited to get to work.
My new comp is none other then the great Elder Gill, hailing all the way from Northern Ireland. We are currently serving as the zone leaders in the Machida West zone which happens to include the beautiful area of Kofu. Now if you take our entire mission and draw a line right down the middle, the left half is Kofu. We have a lot of area to cover and our schedule is already looking pretty full. We’ve got some great missionaries and I am excited to work with them.
Lastly, as any modern missionary well knows, during the first 12 weeks in the field young missionaries go through what is called the 12 weeks training. So here I am, last 12 weeks in the field and what I decided to do (shoutout to Brad-dad) is go through the 12 weeks training program again and see if I can’t become a little bit more effective servant in the Lord’s hands. This is the Lord’s work. There’s no way I could or would do this if I were on my own. So hopefully we can learn to work a little harder and little more in the Lord’s way.
Things are going great and I’m loving it here in the promised land of Hachioji. Hopefully I’ll have a good story to tell next week! Until then, have a good one! 愛しています.
