Hey everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic week! For
the missionaries in the Frozen Chozen Japan Sapporo mission it was transfer
week! Unfortunately I had to say goodbye to my beloved Wakkanai. I have
absolutely come to love the people there and the place itself. I was able to
grow a lot there and learn a lot about myself while I served there. I was also
sad to think that I would no longer see the ocean, Thankfully though that is
not the case. I am still ocean side! I almost made it from the northern most
point to the southernmost but didn't quite make it all the way. Instead I made
it to the amazing place of Tomakomai! I thought it was really funny to be
called here right after serving in Wakkanai. As a mission we have a mission
song and the only two areas that are mentioned are Wakkanai and Tomakomai. It
goes a little something like this "from the icy shores of Wakkanai to the
Ainus in Tomakomai". I thought it was really cool that I actually got to
live out that part of the song.
Also I am opening the area! Meaning that I am starting
from 0. Though I have faith that before I leave and before this area gets
closed down due to numbers (unfortunately it is inevitable) that we will build
this area to hero status! My new companion is Elder Schvaneveldt (Swan) and is amazing! He has moved all over the place. He has
lived in Japan, Costa Rica, Utah, and New York. He is actually a cadet from
West Point! I am super excited to have army by my side! I also live in an
apartment with two other Elders. Elder Hammond (who was here before) and Elder Jenson (who just moved here).
I have already seen so many miracles while I have been
here! I am super excited for this transfer and to preform the Miracles that God
is eager to preform. I hope all of you guys can see the miracles in your lives
as well! I love you guys, have a great week!
Love,
Elder Harvey
