Hey mom and dad,

Thanks for the emails. So the big news about transfers is my area got
closed. Kind of sad but I think that is what it needed. I am now in
NISHIWAKI. It is more country than Nabari but the members here are on
fire. They are amazing. I have only been here for 5 days and they
are full of love and want to help the missionaries. I feel good about
working here. I am excited to have a new start. My new comp. is you
guessed it Japanese. He is from Hokkaido. He is way cool and way good
at talking with people. Sorry no pictures today I forgot my camera but
next week for sure.

My testimony has really been strengthened these past couple of months.
Nabari was very hard. It was a struggle. But now I am in Nishiwaki
and this place seems like Osaka city to me. All I can think about is
where to go and talk to people. How to contact them. My whole
thinking has changed. It is like a switch has been flipped. I know
that we all have trials for a reason and if we bear them well we will
receive blessings. I know this without a doubt.

It’s kind of short but thanks for everything. I love you guys so much
and I can’t wait for you guys to come after I have worked as hard as I
can to share the gospel with the Japanese people.

From the land of our ancestors,

Love,
