This week was pretty good. Elder Reid and I biked a lot and
saw some really cool stuff. We discovered some parts of Machida that I don’t
think a lot of missionaries have really gone too before. There’s a set of hills
on the north end of the area where there’s not really many roads or
neighborhoods. So of course we had to check it out. We get out there to
discover that although we were in the city of Tokyo, we were completely
surrounded by green and rice fields. It was like two different worlds so that
was a fun feeling. Talked to some really nice people, had a crazy old lady yell
at us. Found a creepy apartment where a bunch of Nepalese people lived. You
know. The works.
We visited a bunch of members because they’re the best. Also
sweat a lot. We’re in another finding phase so we’ve been talking to a lot of
cool people. Haven’t started teaching anyone new but we’ll find someone
eventually. The Japanese people are so incredibly nice and just overall good
people. Of course every society has a few people who aren’t that great, but
overall they continue to impress me. They may not always been the most excited
about religion, but they’re an amazing people who do amazing things. It’s
great.
Had a sweet small world connection! They had this thing here
in Japan called NYC. It’s basically the Japanese version of EFY and a couple of
the ward members were counselors there. Brother Atomu comes up to me at church
and he’s like, “Elder Cuff, I met your cousin!” I was a bit confused and then
he showed me a picture of Asuka’s cousin Kei from when I stayed with them in
Portland before coming out to Japan! So that was cool.
Other than that things have been cruising along!
