A week in Japan

Monday night: we went to Kichijoji for Family Home Evening with Endō Kyōdai and his friend. It was interesting. Elders Molen and Hawkins taught about honesty. It was interesting. We played two truths and a lie. Japanese people are really good at it.

Tuesday: We went on a long walk to find some less actives. We only found one and she was so nice. She gave us a bunch of vegans meat. This was the day that we found the nice riverside park and President Trump.

Wednesday: I was sick today. Pretty bad headache and sore everything. I slept in and then we went to find a members address in Ōizumi gakuen. He didn't have an apartment number so we couldn't get in touch with him. We went and taught Eikaiwa, always fun.

Thursday: still pretty nasty feelings. We watched the world wide missionary broadcast and did weekly planning, then went to the Asada family's for dinner. Asada shimai is still the best cook in all of Saitama Ken. No changes have been implemented here in Tokyo South yet, but if you want to know what is happening in other missions, I am sure you can find the broadcast online.

Friday: Today was packing and cleaning. We are getting ready for a cleaning check and for the end of the transfer. We did maybe the deepest clean our apartment has ever had. Ever.

Saturday: today we visited Uenoyama Kyōdai again and read the Book of Mormon with him. He really doesn't remember anything about it. He hasn't been to church in over 35 years. He is really nice and always gives us orange juice. We were going to go to a Chinese New Year in Kichijoji, but our investigator cancelled and we had to go home early. That evening we had a great lesson with Kurenuma. He is doing great! We taught with Aono Kyōdai, who is studying for semester exams.

Sunday: way too busy. We had Church, where Kurenuma was ordained a Priest, and then the bishop's daughters baptism. We had a friend come to the last hour of church and to the baptism . He is from Aomori prefecture up in Sendai. He brought us some apple from there and they are really good. After that got really crazy, we went to Ōizumi for dinner with the Aoki family. We had a message about the Book of Mormon and Star Wars.

Yeah, busy week, next week looks busy too, but thanks for emails and love from all of you, 愛しています!
