This week was so insanely busy! It was awesome! We saw so many
miracles and I will try and fit them all into this email!
I have been in this area for 6 months... And this week we FINALLY
found 4 people who seem like they can be solid investigators. Not only
that, but a few of the less active we have been working with are super
close to being reactivated. Such a blessing.
On P-day we went to the zoo, but it was closed... But we could still
see some of the monkeys! We ended up going to Indo Curry and I got
cheese nan :) Then we dendo'd and met a cool lady from Taiwan.
Tuesday was absolutely crazy. District meeting changed last minute, so
we had to catch a train to Hofu. Unfortunately, I read the train times
wrong, and we missed our train. Then we proceeded to miss all of our
trains for the rest of the day, even coming home. It was hilarious.
Even though my companion is Japanese, we still managed to mess up! We
made an adventure out of it and we finally made it back just in time
for junkai with the Yahata sisters! I went with my bestie Sister
Jespersen. She has red hair and she is so wonderful. We housed into
someone who was a former investigator. He said he would come to
church!
Wednesday we had Eikaiwa! The kids learned how to write their names.
They are so smart!
Thursday was Junkai #2, the sisters from Iwakuni came! I went with
Sister Luczak, who is my dendo granddaughter! (Ogawa Shimai was her
trainer!) we had a blast. Found one of our new investigators. Came
home tired. We may or may not have had a dance party.
Friday we rehearsed for the concert, and then we did area book dendo.
Saturday was Yasuko's lesson! She is 91 years old and was worried
about telling her friends that she would not drink tea anymore. But
now she is ready to bear her testimony! She is so awesome! Then we had
our concert and it went really well. Not very many people came, but
one member invited his friend and she brought her daughter. At the
end, they came to us and asked if we could teach them more about Jesus
Christ. The husband had passed away last yesr, and they asked if they
would be able to see him again. We were able to say YES and make an
appointment for this week.
Sunday the branch found out that I am leaving and it was so sad. But I
still have one more week! We had a really good night of dendo and then
we were able to talk to one of our investigators and pray with her
before bed... She had a rough day.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to serve a mission. I feel so
lucky to serve in Japan. These people are so prepared!
I know I have made so many eternal friends. I know that God loves us!
Sorry that is all for this week!
