Wow it's email time again. Time flies so quickly but I probably say
that like every week it was another good one here in the Honbu.
Highlights are probably a visit with an NA family, they had a bunch of
visitors so it was a lot of fun we were introduced to a lot of new
people so it was good a couple said that they would come to eikaiwa so
I'm excited for that. Next would probably be that we got to watch Meet
the Mormons again with all the members and investigators in Japanese
it was pretty good but I think the movie is just better in English, I
think the stories of the different people were super good but the
beginning I don't think that anyone got any of the jokes with
references to movies and TV shows. But watching those football scenes
again made me really happy! And then today we went with a member to a
City called Otaru it's beautiful and we went up a mountain and then He
took us for ice cream and ya that was about it but it was fun!! I love
you all and hope that you have a great week!!
1. dtm lunch
2. New couple missionaries
3. Did the cinnamon challenge( it was for a good reason I hope it was
for the AP's zone conf. Workshop so it better be good because I
thought I was one and done with that freaking challenge.

Hey everyone another week down in the Honbu! and it was a good one we
had a lesson with an investigator, she is way cool and she has been
studying the bible for 40 years and right now feels that there are 2
choices that could possibly be right and our church is one of them so
hopefully we can get her to feel that it is our church through our
testimonies. We were also able to meet with a Less active member and we
had a good conversation there, and of course we had some really good
time to get out and find people so that was fun too! Eikaiwa(english
class) was great this week we had a lot of people come so it was super
fun, we also had a sports night this week with a bunch if the youth in
Sapporo, we played basketball and everyone was freaking out at how good
me and Elder Horne were at basketball, we ball soo hard man!!
The
Arringtons cam this week as well my financial replacement people and
secretary replacement people as well. I still have the recorder job but
we will see how long I stay it will either be for a really long time or
it will be for a super short time is what everyone is saying and what I
am thinking. but that is it for the highlights I love you all and hope
you have a great week!!

Good week this week!! We were able to get out and do some work and we
had one lesson this week that was pretty good we like through it all on
the line for this guy his name is ishii, he is what is called an eternal
Investigator, missionaries have met with him on and off for like 7
years, and before I came Elder Hishii and Elder Birch were trying to get
him to come to church and see if they could help he come closer to
Christ, but anyways back to the Lesson, Elder Hishii threw like
everything out there it was so freaking good he was basically like " yo
man do you understand why we are here and what we are doing, do you know
what you can get from this if you put forth the effort, ARE YOU
LISTENING man I Freaking love you and want you to put some effort in I
love you and want you to receive all these blessings I have right now!"
That is probably the best I can explain it in english, but Yes it was
just amazing I don't know what else to say, but if the end final result
he is going to come to church this month. I was honestly blown away by
that lesson, if you knew Elder Hishii its just like that is not his
personality he is literally the nicest most humble person you know but
when he was tearing this dude apart, that is a little strong but really,
he was doing it because that is what he needs to progress right now. oh
and I guess I havent said anything about Elder Hishii yet but he is
from Kyoto and we have been on a mission for the same amount of time we
are going home at the same time, pretty cool but, he is an amazing chef,
super fun and willing to do what ever to get the work done and going
faster, I love him and we are having a blast!!!
Dont have a bunch if time to Email this week but those are the highlights. Love you all have a great week!!!
