2018 July 15 - Well, Only For Me

 Well, this week was crazy. Monday, had a lesson with Hidenori, sadly because he wasn’t able to make it to church so, he isn’t able to get baptized on the 28, in the morning and then just went to a bunch of stores. Then we went and did some streeting. Tuesday, a lot of 伝道, we did try to visit 2 LAs and 2 PI but, sadly no one was home. Wednesday, we went to get Figi長老’s bike from the bike shop. Also had Eikaiwa and that was pretty fun. Thursday, so, Friday we have a big 大会 with us and a near by Zone, 山口. Problem, all the trains are down so, they sent basically everyone to our apartment and didn’t tell us a ton about it. Friday, got to met the Macks!!! And they are way great! It was way cool because for the last little bit has been about contacting and talking to everyone and Mack会長 gets up there and talks about the doctrine of Christ and the conversion of the missionaries, it was great. Then we had a little Companion exchange with the Kure Elders and I went with Elder Sagane, way fun. So you guys remember Elder Walbeck? I had the most loving experience of having him in the apartment for 2 days, so much fun. Saturday, went and did a baptismal interview for one of the Sisters investigators, Aiyaちゃん and she passed! But, getting there and back was difficult because the trains were down so, bus it was and it was blazing hot. When we did get back to the church Sister countryman walked into the chapel and passed out because of heat exhaustion so, that was way fun. We called the Macks and they came down and helped us out. Some members also helped out too and she is all okay now. We then went to go visit a LA, the Higas, and taught them a lesson. Problem, they’re Brazilian, my Companion is Brazilian and I am American so, didn’t not understand the lesson. Sunday, church was good, the Macks talked at church and the both spoke pretty good Japanese. We went to go visit Matsumotoさん, someone we went to go visit last week and wasn’t there but, we were able to met him and he still has a lot of interest and also, his name is Osugi but, ya a lot of interest.

The clean up seems to be going, the trains are down for months and it’s going to take a long time to clean up. We haven’t been able to help a ton but, we are trying to figure out how we can
