Well, Elder Andrew Kade Jones officially had his first baptism! Not
sure why that was in thwe 3rd person but whatevs. Anyways, Sunday
August 5th we had the baptism in the morning before church. It was a
great service with a good turn out. I was nervous about saying the
baptismal prayer in Japanese but it went fine. It was amazing to be
able to be in all white and to enter the waters with a great young man
I was blessed to find teach, and see progres all the way to the font.
He has just started a new path, and I hoe and pray he always remains
faithful.
We are celebrating today with Sushi, my favorite! Elder Ishiga and I
have been getting along great, the language barrier does get
frustrating sometimes but we end up working it out. Most of the time I
understand the words he is using, but the context they are in seem to
not make sense.... I think that is more of a cultural difference than
a language difference, one of the many challenges of a country,
culture, and language so unfamiliar. But things are going great and we
are certainly being blessed. The best work is the Lords work.
