Hey Everyone. I hope you are all enjoying Mother's Day
today! Or Yesterday if you're like me because of Japan things (i.e. 13 hours ahead of Eastern Time). Mother's Day was
really awesome here because it was also fast and testimony meeting. We had a
bunch of awesome testimonies from members and we also got fed at a members
house! (Sorry forgot to receive the pics). It was a really great dinner! I
ended up eating so much that the members asked if I was fat before the
mission. They were quite surprised to hear that right now is the heaviest I
have ever been in my life. "Weighing at about a whole 140 lbs we have the
missionary in the white corner, ELDER HARVEY!" But seriously most of that gained
weight is from muscle gained in my legs. Biking all day everyday gets you some
nice legs. But not as nice legs as running 20klm/12mile run. We have an
investigator who wants to became a policeman in the future and his usual run is
20k.
Nothing really too interesting this week. For Eikaiwa (English class) we
had the sisters from Higashi there as well which was really fun. We were
learning about holidays and I made the role play be that you had to go last
minute decoration shopping but you can't say the holiday's name. It was a big hit! I almost had people falling out of
their chairs as I almost fell over carrying a huge imaginary pumpkin and
accidentally knocked over an imaginary Christmas tree that I was almost crushed
under as I caught it.
We also had a meal by another member family. If you
remember me talking about a person in my Eikaiwa that has a British accent then
you have the right family in mind. It was really fun giving our experiences of
being younger and when we had testimony building experiences. They also asked a
lot about our families and before mission life. They were quite impressed with
Ken's muscles. They also thought it was hilarious that I was the animebu
or anime club president. That was pretty much my week. I hope you can all find
things to be grateful for in your week!
Love,
Elder Harvey
