We had four wonderful new missionaries come to our mission tonight. Elder O'Hara (Arizona), Elder Kuwahara (Fukushima), Elder Finlinson (Utah), and Elder Shimohara (Utah). They did great on their first night! We are excited to watch them grow throughout their mission!

The missionaries rode the train to the mission home sharing the gospel all the way! They all did great! They were willing to open their mouths and share their testimony with everyone!
Stopped for a quick picture inside the Nagoya Eki underneath the Golden Clock.

Elder Alexander Finlinson comes to us from Oak City, Utah. He is the third child in a family of four. Elder Finlinson enjoys reading, hanging out with his cousins, and "table top role playing, because you can do whatever you want."
Elder Eckman is very well-read. He is very smart and a good teacher.

Elder Shimohara (left) and Elder Tsutamori- Nonami
Elder Samuel Shimohara’s parents converted before he was born, so he grew up in the church. He lives in Torrance, California. He hopes, when he gets home, to spend a few days listening to General Conference talks and making a plan for the rest of his life. It will most likely involve getting a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
Elder Tsutamori loves many sports and has already studied engineering in college. He is good at listening to others and pondering deeply. Elder Tsutamori is from Hokkaido, Japan.

Elder O'Hara (left) and Elder Gottfredson- Kanazawa
Elder Andrew O'Hara is a Mesa, Arizona native. His mother is a convert to the Church, as a result of ekaiwa classes. She also served a mission in Nagoya. His father is also a convert and served in Bolivia. Elder O'Hara loves to draw, wrestle, read, run, listen to music and be with friends. His goal after his mission is to become a chiropractor and help people feel better. He could also enjoy being a cartoonist.
Elder Gottfredson likes music. He plans to minor in music and major in something that
will provide a living. He makes friends easily, and sees being a bit prideful
as a strength and a weakness.
