More typhoons are a coming!

Apparently that was my ninth taifuu! Well I guess throughout Japan. The other ones if they were in Tokyo weren't very bad. But number 9 was pretty big! We weren't allowed to go outside. I think they called that one Mindulle. But there is supposed to be an even bigger one coming on Monday at 15:00! 

The twenty two missionaries was pretty crazy! That missionary who didn't send me his info and I thought was going to be a punk turned out to be like the nicest one there! I was excited about that. The new couple missionary in the office (Loftus) came. The Yamashita's are here until the 28th. That's going to be so sad when they leave! I'm not looking forward to that day. 

 I love my nephews so much! That picture is adorable. 

I sent out transfer call emails this week. I was freaking out because something wasn't working how it usually does. I freaked out and called president Warnick and we tried to get something to work. He didn't know what to do. If we didn't figure it out I would have had to send each one like individually and that would have take hours! I prayed and then had the idea to use old information and then just change what needed to be changed. It ended up working fine. I actually sent them early. But I am now district leader and tech staff! Did I already say this last week? I don't remember. That will be and but I'm excited for the challenge and to learn a lot. I love my district! They are all really hard working obedient missionaries so that makes it easier. 

The  Sapporo Temple was dedicated! It was so awesome! I feel so strongly the importance of temples and a much deeper love and appreciation for Japan. They went through a lot to get the church here! The war broke out and the church was banned in Japan. When Heber J Grant opened Japan for missionary work he baptized two people the whole two years. He felt like he didn't do anything. The next time President Hinkley came there were about 100,000 members! The work is slow but it is going! I love Japan! 

I love the atonement of Jesus Christ. No matter how dirty you may feel, whether you be red like Crimson, Christ can make you whole again, white as wool. I know that's true. 

I love you all!
