皆さん！ how is
everybody. This week was a blur honestly. We were really
busy all week and I don't see a break in
the foreseeable future. I'll
highlight some of the things we did.
So, we've been teaching this family for
a bit. We teach the son
English. His dad took missionary lessons
a while back so he has
exposure to the missionaries. The son
really likes us, and the dad
decided for us to teach all his kids.
We've been building a
relationship with them for the past few
weeks. The other night, during
ping-pong, we got to talking about why
he was interested in us. He
said that when the missionaries started
teaching the Word of Wisdom,
he really liked it. Through following
it, and feeling the spirit, he
was able to quit alcohol. He said he
wants his kids to have that in
their lives. We've been talking about
baptism lately and will try to
commit him this week! They're an amazing
family.
Also, we've been teaching this American
guy for the past month and a
half. He came to church last Sunday
which was surprising. He's been
more receptive then our main focus
investigator. However, after
sacrament he pretty much told us to stop
wasting our time, religion
just really isn't who he is. Then he
accepted a Book of Mormon. We'll
decide later this week on further
action.
Really this week just involved a lot of
biking and streeting. We had a
few really good contacts, but none of
them have replied to us. We
haven't given up hope though. We talk to
a lot of people. We recently
made a goal to go above our normal goal
while contacting. Lately,
we've been doing really good.
I guess the highlight of this week is
going to the zoo and temple.
Today was a temple p-day hence the email
delay. I finally got some
good pictures for all of you. I also ate
some pretty good gyoza. For
those of you who don't know what gyoza
is, it's a Chinese style of
dumpling, usually with pork and cabbage
inside. They're usually fried
on one side as well. Well, that's pretty
much it for this week. Wish I
could write more but my brain is pretty
much fried. Have a good week
everyone!
