Got this email from Jarek yesterday.  His grammar and spelling are going to pots. I know....it's because he has to write  a lot of people and he doesn't get a lot of time on the computer. He did inform his dad that they will have to buy their own ipads in March so I'm hoping that will give him more time to write, give us more detail, and use better grammar ;) Love this kid.

Week 19

Another Great week every week on a mission is great but this one was even better while we were housing this week on thursday the last house we pinged was a family of five and the mom seemed really interested so we set up a follow up appointment and we will be seeing them again on thursday, but that isn't the only family that we found either, the first house that we pinged on sunday was my contact and I said Hey we are missionaries from the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day saints, and the guy said to wait a second he was coming to the door, I was pretty excited at that moment not many people come to the door and talk to you then, he came to the door said hello then he said come in to the genkan, so we went into the genkan and that only happens like 1 out of 150 houses you contact but then he told us to take our shoes off and go inside and that never happens an on the spot lesson it was so crazy, it was a family of five a japanese dad and a philipino?(dont know how to spell that word) wife and they had 3 daughters, I guess she had been contacted by missionaries before in the philippians because she had a book of mormom in Tagolag so that was freaking crazy but then she says that she has been looking for a church to go to and she wants baptism, we had about a 2 hour lesson with them about the restoration and they said theyd come to church and we are gonna meet with them again on thursday, this was an absolutely crazy awesome miracle, and I just wanted to share.

 

That is the week I hope that everyone is doing great and loving school:)!!
