Hey everyone! This week has been pretty short thanks to
Temple Pday but SO much has happened! To start things off, the temple is just
amazing! I was able to meet with a bunch of members from all the places I've
been to. It was great to see a bunch of my friends again! I also got invited
back to Moiwa (first area). There's a rumor that if someone invites you to Moiwa you end up
going there. So I just might end up dying there like my breaker did (he was
also a Moiwa bean). I also got to talk with some people from Shinoro (most recent area) which was
great!
The next day I was on Splits with Elder Hess. Not a whole
lot happened but the one thing of note is that attached to our apartment is a
card shop. We were able to talk with the people inside thanks to my knowledge
of Magic the Gathering. Sometimes really weird things just come in handy. (笑)
Then things got crazy on Friday. We had our weekly
planning session but just as we were ending Elder Kikuchi decides to floss. As
he is flossing I just hear him start repeatedly saying in a loud voice "Elder
Harvey" I quickly walk over to find him holding a filling and a part of
his tooth. Luckily there was no bleeding or any pain but that afternoon was
pretty much us trying to find a dentist to go to. So we go to the dentist and
are there for about an hour and a half just for them to tell us to come back
again, because Elder Kikuchi's tooth is rotten in the inside. So we just move
on, go to Eikaiwa (English class) for nobody to show up and made a an advertisement video for
the Christmas party.
The next day (Saturday) we go back to the dentist and
they work on Elder Kikuchi's tooth for about 30 minutes and tell us that we
have to come back 3 more times all about a week apart. Poor Elder Kikuchi has
to wait for his filling until it's all over. Then we continue dendo. We found some
special mochi (rice cake) only sold in Nagoya and went to a ramen shop named Ikki. Just
about everyone we have talked to has recommended this store, now I know why.
Then we also had a Facebook class for the members on how they can help us on
Facebook and how they can dendo for themselves on Facebook.
Then Sunday rolled around. It was a really busy day. We
had Church, the Christmas devotional, trying to make appointments with members,
and more. As usual Church is CRAZY for missionaries. We also had a dinner with
an investigator family. They made us lasagna. It was really great because we
also had a bunch of members there. In all it was a great time and we had a message about the meaning of Christmas.
Anyway this week has been awesome and very exciting. I love you all and am thankful for all of your guys' love! I love you All! Merry Christmas!
Love,
Elder Harvey
