Week 72- 2/13/17 It Snowed This Week

Yes it did snow this week. Hello everybody! It's email time again so
sit down and buckle up! Get ready for one of the most boring
missionary emails ever.

Tuesday was spent on trains going to a less active youths house.
Unfortunately he's never home when we have time to go. We then spent
the rest of the day getting back then we taught English! On Wednesday
we had another fun train ride but just to the next city over. We also
taught more English at night. My mission has taught me that I don't
want to be an English teacher. So much of English is culturally based
so when somebody tries to learn from outside the culture they don't
understand. We also had all you can eat meat with a Samoan and that
was pretty fun. His name is Sonny and he's huge. I have a picture.
Thursday was zone meeting and more all you can eat meat. We also did
some weekly planning, got bored, and visited a bunch of other people.
Friday was more weekly planning, and service at a Canadians house. I
moved rocks and pretty much weeded and played with spiders and slugs
for a good two hours. It was pretty therapeutic and we are good
friends with this family now.
On Saturday we had lunch with a member in the ward. He used to be a
professional boxer so he taught me some moves. Also we went up to a
place called Utsunomiya and did a blitz with the traveling assistants.
We tested all these people with English questions and told them to
come to our mission school. Pretty much more teaching English. Then
Sunday was a normal Sunday.

Things are going well here in Oyama. Just living day to day and having
a good time. This transfer has gone way fast actually but it doesn't
feel like anything huge has happened. I've been having fun though.
That's about all I have for you all but feel free to email back!
