2017 07 09 Another Week

Not lazy, just brain dead. Sorry for the lame title, I couldn't think of anything but, it has been an interesting week.

Monday (月 Getsu 曜日yobi):

Today we met Aoki 姉妹 (shimai - sister) while we were doing shopping and talked to her for a bit. While we were talking to her we we found out that she had set up a lesson with Madoka for that NIGHT! She said that she was going to call us later with all the details. The lesson went pretty good. We talked about some of her concerns and stuff like that.

we all had matching ties on July 4

Tuesday (火 Moku 曜日yobi):

Today was 面接 (mensetsu - interview) day! Wwe took a train down to Kagoshima so we could meet with President Egan. After the interview we got on the train and came right back. We taught a lesson to Haruna and talked about why she hasn't been able to receive baptism yet. We then read the BOM with her.

Wednesday (水 Sui 曜日yobi):

Today I went on 巡回 (junkai - patrol / splits) with Elder Williams and it was a blast! We were able to see the miracle! We set up THREE Return Appointments (RA) and we had a blast together.

I decided to wear a random jacket

Thursday (木 Moku 曜日yobi):

Today was spent mostly cleaning and doing weekly planning. We did pass our cleaning check. After that we had Eikaiwa (English conversation class) and some new people showed up and that was cool.

Friday (金 Kin 曜日yobi):

We had set up a lesson with Uncle Tom, (a guy we had lunch with last week) but it turned into another lunch date. Uncle Tom’s nephew is a missionary here in our mission so he and Elder Chadwick ended up taking him out. After that he took us and the other Elders out to eat Yakiniku (Grilled meat). We had kid's Eikaiwa (English conversation class) and after that we planned to 伝道 (Dendo - tracking) but Elder Chadwick was way tired so we rested for a good amount of time.

I'm still kinda confused why we took the picture but we did

Saturday (土 do 曜日yobi):

We 伝道 (Dendo - tracking) a little in the morning and then went to go help set up for the Branch's matsuri (Festival). It was a ton of fun and we were in charge of the water balloon toss but, that just became a water balloon fight and that was fun.

Sunday (日 nichi 曜日yobi):

Church was good. We had branch conference so some people for Kagoshima came down. Sadly, both Madoka and Haruna couldn't make it today. Madoka couldn’t make it because she had a really big test and Haruna was out because she got really sick. After that we went to the apartment and Elder Chadwick passed out. We were able to meet with the return appointments that we set up. The first kid was way cool and we talked with him for a good amount of time but, can't meet again because he is super busy. The second Return Appointment told us he didn't have interest so in the lessons, SOOOOOO we 伝道 (Dendo - tracking) near by. Today we have an interesting plan. An Eikaiwa (English conversation class) student offered to take me and Elder Chadwick to go and do something special. Unfortunately Elder Chadwick is still dead tired so me and Elder Yagame are going to……. THE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT!!!! It should be very interesting.
