Wow.

From leaving my sending church in Virginia, to arriving in LA, flying to Tokyo, training in Tokyo, and finally doing ministry and schooling in Tokyo... Its been wild.

I Got to have an amazing night of support and send off in Virgina, and it has been crazy from there. Some of my closest friends dropped me off at the Airport and then came to LA. It was so awesome meeting the team in LA, we had a night of prayer, worship, and communion walking into this trip. It is a weird feeling walking into a room knowing that you are going to spend the next 8 months living with every person in there. But we prepared, some of us went and got some tacos in LA and they were fire.

Next day was travel day. It was insane, we go to the airport and prepared to leave. I got to know some people around the airport but didn't have to time to talk a lot and then we got on the plane. Bro, mom this plane was wild. Just to help you understand they were serving us and we got WARM WET TOWELS to dry our wipe our hand off... thats crazy. MOM you would have loved it was such an amazing flight. On the flight I met this Japanese Lady and she was teaching me some Japanese and I got to share the Gospel with her. She was so fire. Then we Landed in TOKYO.

This was awesome (Fire). We ended up getting to our space after around 35 hours of being awake and traveling, and I was so tired. Then we started training camp, this was so beautiful to experience. We had trainings, excerises, and lots and lots of worship. There was so much growth on our team and we all grew very close. It was almost like i've known these people for my whole life. It was weird but a good thought. Two coaches and mentors poured into us all week and i loved it, They were Dave and Shelia, overflowing wisdom and knowledge.

Then we started up on Ministry, that week was so beautiful, we did street evangelism every day fro about two hours and i could go on and on about that. We are helping and leading in their church services. But there have been soooo many people i've met for little kids, to random dj's that live in penthouses. The Lord is moving and i am so excited, i have lots of coffee dates and hangouts set up with all the LOCALSSSS.

Please, please, please be praying for my camera it is broken, and i need it fixed but i'm figuring out what that looks like to pay for. \

thank you so much for staying updated, share this with all of my friends and people i know please!!
