Elder Rahn and Elder Sjavic know how to have a sense of humor and keep smiling! That is a good talent to have when you are with 9 other guys 24/7 and studying Japanese now 9 hours a day. Check out their weekly schedule! Good thing for that happy sense of humor, too! They are air bikeriding! :) It is so great to hear about his experiences of working together and struggling  through with a pretty positive attitude and really making it good. We couldn't be happier, even though we surely do miss him. He had to have substitute teachers (sensai) because they were gettig sick, also. He and his district are alittle behind in the language than they would like to be because of this, so they are really pushing now. Keep up the good work!
