Mon: So on Monday we walked around part of Sapporo with
Simon, a half Canadian half Japanese guy who took us to a bunch of different
places. I ate SUBWAY! We also went to an
army store which made me miss Kayla :'(. He also took us to a few historical
places and explained the history of Hokkaido. This conversation actually came
up because a guy named William Clark? pretty much made Hokkaido modern and left
with the phrase “Boys be Ambitious.” We walked a ton this day and it reminded
me so much of my walks around Boston with my Dad.
Tue: This day we had Zone Training meeting and we biked
around to a bunch of Bike Shops to buy me a new Bike. I got a black and blue
bike that's waayyyy nice. Then we had Eikawa Class (English class) which was
really fun too. We had twizzlers for treats>.< I also got a new hair cut!
Wed: We biked everywhere this day but the coolest thing was
when we were housing. We get to the very last house of the block we were
housing and the mom (Fukui San) had some interest. We planned to meet her again
and tell her about eternal families. This day was also really cold. We spent a
good amount of time without coats until we were finally forced home because of
the cold. Then we trapped coats and ran back out the door. This day we visited
a few members and at one point a less active member’s daughter was playing with
some friends right outside her house. They thought it was so cool that we were
gaijin (foreigners) and spoke English. That girl is gonna be sooo popular cuz
she spoke English with some Americans.
Thur: This day was weird. We had practically no dendo time.
We printed things out at a member’s house. He's pretty young. He plays League of Legends and his desktop
screen was a picture of a new skin for a champion named Jinx. Then we had
interviews with our mission president. I learned a lot from him. He relates
everything back to his job as a chiropractor somehow though.
Fri: Right when I thought I was done with early morning
seminary I'm not. We had an investigator come and we went too. I picked up my
bike and the rest of the day was kind of disappointing. But we made the day up
by going to a cafe at a hotel called prince Hotel.
Sat Sun: RYO KUN CAME! So the investigator who came to
seminary actually came to conference for the Saturday session and 1 and 1/2 of
the Sunday sessions. He wants to come to Elder Bednar’s Fireside too! IM SO
EXCITED FOR THIS PERSON! Also BOYS BE AMBITIOUS! We went housing this Sunday
and found a Potential investigator and a new investigator. I finally handed out
my first Book of Mormon myself. I recommended Moroni Chapter 7 because she
really wanted to know the truth about Love. Also we are definitely ambitious.
By the end of this month our goal is to find 32 new investigators. So far we
found 1 and 4 potentials but potentials don't count :( Oh and on the way home
we stopped this guy and he has a friend who is Mormon though she lives in
Kyuushu. But he has lived in New Zealand for the past 4 years and wants to come
to our Eikawa class with his daughter. SO EXCITED!
Mon: I mopped floors Japanese style, with rags. X)
Sorry I am out of time about to go to a Basketball
tournament. Also one of our investigators is here with us. We are currently at
the Church that is where we do all of our emails.
Love You!
