It's been good up here in Wakkanai. It's been a bit cold, a concept likely foreign to my Arizonian compatriots, but fun nevertheless. Theoretically, we'll be getting snow this weekend! Whether I'll survive that or not, we'll just have to wait and see.
For the most part, this week has been a lot of simple lessons with various persons. Keeping up with the japanese is still difficult, but I'm getting the hang of it. One of the people we were teaching was doing some woodwork, so we got to help out. We got to use a saw and drill, which was pretty cool. Brought back good memories of the pinewood derby (sweet, sweet nostalgia~). We also went to one of our investigator's dance classes. Not sure how, but I managed to imitate the people in front of me well enough to earn the praise of the many grandmas and grandpas there. After that, we went and got icecream with everyone. T'was yummy.
Final announcement of this week: we got a new interested friend! He's from Texas (that made things ridiculously easier, let me tell you) and he's agreed to read a bit of the Book of Mormon! At first he was kind of meh about religion in general, but apparently the Spirit did us a solid and boosted my teachings and testifyings. High hopes for this guy!
That's all for this week, folks! Hope you're all doing well, and have a good week! Matta ne!
