Fukushima; December 12, 2010

Hey Everyone!!!! How is everyone doing?? Things are going great as a missionary. I am now in Fukushima with my new companion Elder Carthew from Melbourne, Australia. Were doing really well. We get along great talk about footy, meat pies, sausage rolls, barbies, and hangin at the beach. It brings back a ton of memories just talking to him its really fun. Fukushima is really good is a pretty big city. The population here is about 300,000. Lots of people to talk to. Here in Fukushima its a ward not a branch which is kind of nice. There are so many people at Church its crazy. I went from a branch of about 38 people to a ward of 74 about. Everyone is really nice. Its also nice because when I got here they already have three baptism dates. A lady named Myrna and her daughter named Sayaka. Myrna is Philippine and her daughter is half Philippine half Japanese. There date is on Christmas day. Also we have another baptism date with this Chinese lady O Ni. She is a college student and he date is also on Christmas day. Im way excited about that. Here in Fukushima we also have sister missionaries as well. They are both Japanese, Sister Onda and Sister Tanaka. Sister Onda has just been out one transfer longer than me and Sister Tanaka just got here from the MTC.Yesterday was way cool we went down by the train station with the sister missionaries and caroled and passed out flyer's for the Christmas party we are having at the church. Its was fun because I haven't really done missionary work like that before. Today it started to snow witch is kind of fun but really cold haha. I'm so used to being either inside the house or really nice snowboarding gear when its cold not in a suit and dress shoes. Makes it a lot colder. Everyone has out there Christmas stuff now and has a Christmas feeling int the air. I just hope that will open the hearts to a message of Christ. The center of Christmas. Well I better be wrappin it up but thanks so much for everything. I love you all and thank you for all the support!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great Christmas season!!!! And enjoy the wonderful Christmas spirit!!!!! Love you all so so so much!!!!!!!!

Love,
