Well this week had some crepes, ramen, tonkatsu, and
lastly some NATO!!!ππ✌π» Stomach was full all
week. I think that will make you happy
mom! π. In all seriousness, this week was a good
one and we accomplished the mission standard of excellence. We needed a nonmember to come to church to
get standard and after 20 mins or so of sacrament Miura san comes and stays for
2 of the 3 hours. So he is a man that is
progressing slowly but surely. We can't
go to fast when we teach him because we will leave him in the dust behind us
(so to speak). He has a little mental problem and apparently was an
investigator 3-4 years ago. However
since hearing what the branch members say, he has completely changed over these
couple of years and is progressing a lot better than previously. Everyone is a child of God and needs to
taste upon the good word. Excited to
continue to teach him!
We got into a lot of houses this week either for lessons
or just getting invited. We housed to
some Czechs, we couldn't share anything but the hospitality of those 3 people
we meet as way nice! I promise there are
good people out there, you just have to house in the cold sometimes to find
them. Plus it reminded me of the crepes
dad would always make.. I promise I am not trunky.
Friday was a really busy day we had lessons at 3, 5, and
6pm. All of them were really good and
spiritual. Especially the 5 o'clock
lesson where we set a new bap date with our investigator named Chiba san. She
is a single mom who wants to improve her life and her kids future.
She let us in and we sat around her tokatsu and had a short
discussion about the plan of salvation and after we committed her to be
baptized and she said yes and that she will try to make it out to church on the
19th with out us asking her!! She is
very aggressive and it's in a very good way.
Sorry my letters aren't great but I take an incredible journal!!
We have two choice in life 1) enjoy or 2)endure. I want to talk about this with kanji (Chinese
characters). θΎ
this is tsurai which means heart breaking, suffering, pain etc. however if you
put another line at the top it becomes εΉΈ. Which is happiness! Do you notice the difference one
line/decision makes? When that line goes
into the top it make a cross. Because of
the cross at the top we can go from pain and suffering to happiness! Because of Jesus Christ choice to die on the
cross and suffer for us we can go from pain and heartache to happiness. Now why would we choose to suffer when Jesus
has already done it for us?? Lets all
choose to be happy and make good choices!
I know Jesus is our savior and best friend! This is true and church is also true! Love you all and have a good week!!
(Btw mom put this in the ward newsletter thingy). Please!
