Baptism!

Hey family!

This week was awesome! Hideaki got baptized today! The first one in Koga for over a year! It was a really good service and he was so happy. It's amazing the happiness that comes from the gospel. We have stake conference next week so he will be getting confirmed the following Sunday in Sacrament meeting. The Ward was so great with him and already have talked about making him a home teacher and getting him to the Temple soon. We have a temple baptismal date with him for the 25th of next month. Now, we need to find new investigators!! We're really trying to get the Eiken built up right now. We're not sure why but our youth just haven't really been coming. I guess we just have to be relentless with them (and their parents)! But, we do know that this week we should have a few more and Yuuki will be coming so that's good! Yeah, about Yuuki, he says he has lots of interest and seems like it but it's been so hard to meet with him lately because he and Eiki are both very busy. We're doing what we can with him but right now he's not progressing too quickly. One great thing with the Eiken here in Koga, though, is that our Bishop and Dendo shunin are both on board and helping us get it moving. They've both asked us for several chirashi so that they can give them to potential students that they know, so we think that it will get going soon. 

Life is great in Koga! We're working hard and doing what we can. Since we've moved apartments we've been biking like 50-70 kilometers a day which is pretty exhausting. But other than that we're doing well! Love you guys!
