Week #55

To answer two of your beginning questions, yes we had a good typhoon here! It hit us pretty good and it fell right on Saturday and Sunday, so no conference, and not next weekend either, all the missionaries in the zone will gather on Thursday and watch all of it from 9 am to 8 pm. I'm half exited-half terrified. And I was referring to when you pick me up, and we visit a bunch of cool places and speak I Japanese for you and stuff, but theres still 10 months to discuss about that.

In other news I finally got a new camera, and I'm way happy with it! I’d send a picture of it but most cameras don't have that feature yet… The typhoon kept us cooped up in the apartment for two days,so lots of study time I guess!

We taught a few lessons this week, but with Friday through Sunday taken by the typhoon, those being our most productive days, it was not a super eventful week.

The transfer is coming to a speedy end, I’ll soon be on transfer 10, and an old man, my year in Japan passed on the 10th without me noticing until the 12th, and before I know it I’ll be seeing all of you over Skype, its going waaaaaaaaay too fast I still feel like a first transfer, despite that I know I've grown a lot, it’s hard to notice sometimes.

I hope mom had a fun drive, and golfing was fun, we'll just have to have a sushi and donut party when we get back, cuz I make sushi all the time now, it’s super easy!

Anyway, stay strong, stay diligent stay, stay faithful, JKS
love ya,

Week #54

I’ll be exited to see Conference! I’ll see it this coming weekend, because they have to translate all of it first, but I'm exited and our investigators will get to see too! So I'm exited for them!!

It was a fun time in Germany, kind of wish I’d let you guys get me lederhosen, it might have been fun! It’s ok, though, we will have another great time when we visit Japan, right, so we can just get a katana, then. I should finally be able to get the camera today, we will see, so just bare with me.

We’ve been seeing the blessings of the Lord so much lately! New investigators weekly, and two investigators actively going to church! I'm way happy for them.
language is going well, not so much a barrier but I catch things I didn’t understand all the time, just vocabulary based really, so I’ll keep at it.

Another typhoon was supposed to come today but it looks like it missed, blessings of the Lord, I presume!

I'm happy to hear that every one is doing well and moving forward, love you so much,
stay strong stay faithful stay diligent, JKS
