Well Christmas was in the air this week. At least it was the one day it snowed. It melted later in the day. The weather has been cold and rainy and riding through the rain sucks. Nobody walks on the streets during weather like that or they don`t want to stop and talk. There`s something else about winter time that makes investigators not want to talk to us anymore. We`ve had to drop 4 of them which gives us the grand total of 9 right now. I`m starting to feel like a missionary in Japan due to our reduced teaching pool. For some of my friends in the mission 9 is the max they`ve had in an area.
A lot happened this week. We had Zone Conference in Okazaki which was super good. It was a really big language confidence booster for me because President and Sister Yamashita both spoke in Japanese for the morning session and I could understand them pretty well. They were speaking slowly, but it was still rewarding to see some sort of progression.
We had a Christmas Party on Saturday at the church. It was pretty fun and Elder Moretti was Santa Clause and Elder Miranda was his reindeer. Elder Bills and I made little presents for the kids and it was a good time. It felt a little more like Christmas with all the happy (crazy) kids.
I hope everyone enjoys their Christmas! Several of you have asked what I will be doing on Christmas Day. Well, I will get to call home in the morning and then I work for the rest of the day. Yep, no break, we work. At least I didn`t have to take finals last week!! (John and Ashley)
I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas wherever you may be in the world. Remember Heavenly Father loves each of you so much that He sent His son to this world to die so we all can live again.
メリークリスマス
