His Gospel Is A Gospel Of Hope

About Me


Hi,
My name is Steve and I'm 19 years old. In general, I'm a pretty chill guy with a knack for the arts. I enjoy playing music, writting and visiting bookstores - Oh yeah, and dancing's sweet too. I grew up in Utah and spent quite a bit of my youth in New Zealand and Hawaii. But I am currently serving an LDS mission for the space of two years in Fukuoka Japan - including the southernmost islands.

I am truly honored to serve The Lord in the "Land Of The Rising Sun" ;) And starting on May 23rd, I will no longer be using myspace. However, I will allow my brothers to manage my account in my behalf. So any comments that you send will be relayed to me by them. Just keep in mind though that I won't be able to write back and that it would be best to send only comments unless you want to write me by mail. If so, then I will be able to respond in full to your letters. Amd for those who may consider it, my addresses are as follows:
The MTC (I'll be here until August)

Elder Steven Alama Tausinga
Japan Fukuoka Mission
Provo Missionary Training Center
MTC MailBox is 226 JPN-FKU 0806 2005 N 900 E
Provo, UT 84604-1793
Japan Fukuoka Mission (From Mid-August until I return)
Elder Steven Alama Tausinga
Japan Fukuoka Mission
46 Hirao Josui-machi
Chuo-ku
Fukuoka-shi, Fukuoka-ken 810-0029
JAPAN
Anyways, I apologize if I wasn't able to respond to some of your mail before I left for the MTC. I hope, however, to hear from you all one way or another - I will write back ;) So until then, take good care of yourselves and the ones you love. I'll see you in two years. -Elder Steven Alama Tausinga
AND ONE LAST THING...
THE CHURCH IS TRUE

You Have A Type B Personality
B
You're as laid back as they come. Your baseline mood is both calming and level headed. Creativity and philosophy are your fortes and Like a natural sedative you tend to have a soothing effect on people. Because of your nature, friends and family often turn to you first with thier problems and concerns. And while you have the personality to be a spiritual or psychological guru, people like you most because you're a great friend.
