Week 87
Mission Log
Sennan is still going pretty well. I`ve been here for quite a while now. I`m on my third transfer here, which is tied for the longest that I`ve been in any area. Next week Monday there will be another transfer announcement. I wonder what`s going to happen. I`ll probably go to one more area for the last three transfers of my mission. I wonder where it will be.
It was really warm all of this week. I didn`t wear a coat or gloves or anything just like usual, but what`s not like usual is that I didn`t find myself wishing that I had put a coat or gloves on later in the day or at night when I got cold. It was just really nice all week. I`m pretty sure that winter is over and Spring has begun now. It rained yesterday and it is still raining today. I hope it doesn`t last too long. In June is the rainy season. Once that is over, it is super hot. Even for a little while before the rainy season and all during the rainy season it is hot. July and August are probably the hottest. It gets really really humid in the summer here. It`ll be fun.
I`m completely use to sleeping on a futon. It`d probably be weird for me when I try to sleep on a bed again. I never really had any problem with them. When I first got here, I thought the futons were just fine. Some missionaries do take some time to get used to them though. Some people don`t like them at first. They aren`t as thick as that futon bed/couch mattress that we had back at home. It`s like sleeping on top of a couple of blankets. Did you say that we are staying at the temple one night? Do they have hotel rooms at the temple? I`m excited. I want to go through the temple in Tokyo. Kathrine got married? To whom? Malcom came back home? When? When is Tyler going on a mission?
I`ve started teaching a lot of older people this last week or two. Before, I mostly just taught people in their twenties or teenagers, but just recently I started teaching a bunch of people in their forties, fifties, and sixties. I don`t know how or why that happened, but it`s interesting. It`s completely different from teaching people that are around my same age. Maybe I`ll try to find some more young people this week. I`d really like to focus on trying to find some families that we can teach. When a family joins, they can strengthen each other and the retention rate is so much better.
I have to get going now. I`ll write again next week. Bye.
