Alrighty, so to start things off, our homie Eldon is getting
baptized this August! He's such an incredibly prepared guy who's really been
finding a lot of joy out this Gospel. It's been such an incredible blessing being able to teach him. Also he's gonna teach me how to do some hip hop style dancing so I'm pretty pumped about that!
We had a member this past week who took us to his family shrine. He's a bit older but the rest of his family is Buddhist and he still holds
on to a lot of Buddhist values like being kind and working hard, but not much of the belief. It was a really cool moment though while he shared some stories about his ancestors at he shrine.
There's a place here I might have mentioned in a previous email called Bonchi. It's very well known here in Yamanashi Prefecture because it's cheap, and have ridiculously big portions. Like bigger than a mass majority of American restaurants. So being the the smart people that
we are, we decided to take our mission president and his wife there for dinner after we had interviews. 'Twas a good time had by all.

That's one of the cool things about being a missionary, even though people might not necessarily interested in religion, most of the time they respect what we do. Not all the time, but hey, different strokes for different folks. But it's such an amazing opportunity to be able to bring this light to the people of Japan. They're a wonderful people and I'm still so incredibly stoked to be here.
愛してるよ！
