What's up everybody? It's my turn to
subject you to another five
minutes of what goes over here in the
land of the rising sun. Speaking
of that, it's freaking hot. It's mildly
okay riding your bike but the
humidity here combined with all the
people, concrete, and asphalt just
turns everything into an oven. We
haven't even reached the worst yet
and I'm dying. I can see why the
missionaries funds here go towards
gatorades and ice cream during the
summer.
I've got some news for all of you. We
saw two baptisms down here this
last week. We also found two new
investigators, who either just walked
off the street in the church, or told us
they're looking for truth.
We're meeting with a college student
from Myanmar today. He just
walked into the church parking lot,
asked if we taught English, and
asked when church was. You can probably
imagine we were all over him.
The only
problem is there's like no material in
Burmese, which is what they
speak in Myanmar apparently. So we have
to teach him in Japanese and
English. Oh we also have another baptism
next week. Urayasu area
bringing them home!
Honestly this week went super fast. We
made peach cobbler in the rice
cooker which was heavenly. I also saw a
drumming man under a bridge on
the way to basketball today. I'll send
the video in another email. So
our baptismal font here is not actually
a font. It's a giant
inflatable pool. Elder Wilkes and I had
the privilege of filling it up
because we were on splits. I'll also
attach pictures of that.
Apparently members like seeing baptisms
here because we got gifted
like seven bags of Japanese cereal. I
specify this because Japanese
cereal is expensive and filled with
sugar. Things are going quite good
down here in Urayasu. I actually really
like this area. We just need a
new apartment. I'll most likely end up
moving this apartment as well
as the Okegawa one. Anyways that's all I
have to talk about! I'll
throw in some pictures.

Funabashi. We went to the second
biggest mall in Japan
