July 24, 2017: Costco and ピカチュウ君に決めた


こんにちは皆さん.  元気ですか?

こっちは元気です。今週の木曜日、私はダテ姉妹という上杉の会員から野球試合に連れて行かれますよ。野球試合を見るのは伝道中一番やりたかったことです。weeklyメールに何を書けば書けがさっぱりわからないので日本語で書いてる。できれば私が意義深いこととか霊的な経験について話していると親に考えてもらえたらいいですけどね

笑笑. 今週は大きな奇跡を目にしました。高橋君という19歳求道者が昨日初めて教会に来てくれました。そして聖餐会で彼とよく合う話がたくさんありました。関口会長姉妹は自分の改宗談と宣教師が何のことを犠牲にしているのかとどれほど素晴らしい人のかについて話していました。

とても素晴らしかったですが、その高橋君と会話していて"あの話ってどうだった?"

聞いたら彼はめっちゃよかったって答えてくれました。結局彼は求道者になりました。私は高橋君に感謝しています。

Hello everyone!  I just wanted to share a miracle about a kid we are teaching named Takahashi.  He came to church yesterday for the first time and he said he loved it.  Yesterday we had President and Sister Sekiguchi at church and then after we had a food party and he stayed for all of it.  He loved it actually!  I am so happy for that experience and he said that we can meet and start the discussions again!  Way excited for that!

The people are really nice here!  An English class member took us out to eat this week at this restaurant on the 31st floor of the tallest building next to the Sendai station!  It was way sick!  It was expensive and probably the best food I've ever had in my life, almost!  Don't worry mom cause your food is still better!!

This week in the mission we had a contest called the kekko contest and the winner will get a steak from President Sekiguchi!

I've been really blessed with two 👍🏿😎 baller mission presidents.

For the contest, I figured I would get rejected if I went along with the plans so I decided it's better to just be me come what may.  I decided to just be the normal me and talked to people on the street and people were more than friendly and nice.  It didn't matter if they accepted a tract or not, I saw people as people.   We ended up finding 3 new investigators which is a blessing and a half!

Lastly a spiritual note.  I've been reading the miracle of forgiveness recently!  It's way intense!  But really, because of the my reading I've had more of an appreciation for the atonement of Christ.  He loves all of us.  Because of that he came to the earth, enlightened the path he walked, taught many, and finally made it possible for us to overcome death and return with our families and Father in Heaven!

Please take some time to learn about Jesus this week!  Love you all and have a good one!
