Dear Family,
Well it's almost time!!
I'm going to be talking to you in just a minute but hey I thought I would get
my mail started now. First, HAPPYMOTHERS DAY MOM! I hope you enjoyed your gift
this year! You probably won't get to wear it too often but I thought it would
be cool! :) so this past week was lots of fun, we didn't teach as many lessons
as we did the week before but we definitely taught as much as possible. It was
really good. We only have w baptismal dates at this point because we had to
drop one and are trying to move it to another day but he hasn't decided yet. He
has a really busy work schedule so it's really difficult for him to come to
church. He wants to come but he can't most Sunday's so it's a little difficult
to get him baptized at the moment. But the other two are doing wonderful.
So we have an investigator here right now that is really really good. His name is Kazehiro. I think I mentioned it last week but he has a baptismal date and it just jumped up 2 weeks early so he'll be getting baptized on Saturday. How crazy is that? I've only known the guy for about 3 weeks! Crazy stuff! So we taught him the word of wisdom this past Wednesday and he immediately committed to it. Before we even asked him to follow it he said I'll throw away all my coffee and tea when I get home. And sure enough, he did. Hasn't touched it since. Then he was interviewed last Saturday and passed, now since he's been to prison (he stole some food from a store) he just has to pass a talk with president Wada and he should be good. His only struggle is remembering what each commandment means he just can't remember which commandment is the word of wisdom or which is the law of chastity but he knows what they are and follows them. So that's what is important. I'm super excited.

Well now the rest of this
is happening since I talked to you all! It was awesome to get to see you all
and to talk with you. Sorry if I was a little bit weird! Going home will be
exciting but I'm a bit scared lol. Again, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! I'm glad you got
the kimono all figured out, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to top that
one next year! We'll see! It's way stressful to think about returning, but
thanks for all helping me out. I’m excited to see you all. I shared most of the
rest of the things in the call basically so I'll have lots more to tell you
next week, but I really hope you all know that I love you and I'm so excited to
see you on August 19th! I'll be back from the future that day! Have a great week!
Remember to study and pray!! Love you!
Love,
