Week 22! November 4th

My dearest family and friends!

 

  So I first need to apologize for missing the big email last week!  I messed up...and I promise I won't do it again!  Haha this week has been crazy...After I got the transfer call i had to pack up and get ready to move!  It really is crazy that as missionaries we just get up and move acrossed the country just like that!  I am now living in Mito!  I am so excited!  This city is amazing and I really can feel that we are going to have so many amazing miracles happen here!  In our district, we have the "Matsudo Church," which is the biggest church in all of asia.....is is 6 stories high and on the top floor has a futsal/basketball court!  It is an amazing building and I actually get to see it tomorrow!  way excited to see it!  Mito city is on the completely opposite coast that I was on last transfer, so i got to see the ocean yesterday!  I have officially seen both coasts of Japan.  Way too cool.  Such incredible opportunities as a missionary in the Tokyo Mission!

 

  So it was really sad leaving Sanjo!  I did not think that i would get as close to people here as i did!  it was way sad to have to leave on such short notice..there were a lot of people i didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to!  So it was hard..but i am so excited to meet the new people here in this ward!

 

  I love both of my companions.  They both want the same things I want, and want to work hard like I do so I can't complain!  I know that president budge called us here on purpose so I am way excited to see the miracles this transfer!

 

  So I know that this seems short...even though the week was crazy..most of it was just doing move stufff and getting settled.  But I am going to send out a picture email right after this, and it will really sum up the week!  I am so grateful for all of the support I have received!  It really has been such a blessing.  I have amazing family and friends.  Thank you all so much!  I know that this gospel is true!  I know that the Lord is hastening his work right now and that there are so many miracles here in japan that are ready to happen!  I love being a missionary here, and I realize how blessed I really am to be able to serve the Lord for this short time.  I love you all so much I will talk to you soon!

 

All my love,
