Hey! What's a-pu! haha...well sorry about this week. We are getting pretty busy meeting with people! Tis crazy! Anyways so Miracles for the day and here we go. Wednesday the 24th. On wednesdays we do Eikaiwa...it's like a free English class and we teach this one guy in Eikaiwa that is really good at English and he loves coming but he is totally against the church, but this week I think we are finally getting to him! But for the miracle on Wed that's what it was...he is beginning to grow which is a way good thing!
Thursday.....umm, lets see...I don't have my journal with me today, but we got a bunch of Potentials as far as I can tell from my Planner...haha. All the lessons we had that day spoked...but we have been trying to meet with this couple that seemed really interested and they haven't been home recently...
Friday...Ohh yes! That's right...we go to Sakata about twice a month and we decided to go this week. There is a "less active" kinda that lives there...he comes to church occasionally but he made this database of all the less actives in the ward that live in Sakata and everytime we visit them or do something with them he updates it...so he is helping out like crazy! It's awesome, but I don't know why he doesn't come to church. But on Friday we had a little time to spend with him in the car and he told us his conversion story and why less actives are the way they are. (He used to be Branch Pres)...but yeah, so he has changed like crazy! But his testimony is way strong! Even though he is a Lessactive...kinda his conversion story was way good!
Saturday...So a while back we found this Chinese girl on the street and gave her a chinese book of mormon...which, by the way, we give out about like 3 a week...it's ridiculous how many gaijins are here in Tsuruoka! But we exchanged numbers with her and then we found out that we wrote the number down wrong. Well it just so happens that one of the investigators that we have is this Chinese girls (Koei) roomate! So we met Koei again and now she is an investigator! A way strong one at that! She said that in China she lives right next to one of our churchs! Chinese people are crazy! They are so pure, and totally prepared! Koei is no exeption! I love Chinese people! They are so awesome!
Sunday...our miracle today was that we got the Standard of Excellence again! if you don't know what the standard is out here in Sendai, Japan...look at one of my other posts and you can find out!
Monday...We set a baptism date with Koei! It was a way good lesson. One of the main problems with her is the language barrier...but we're teaching her, little by little. She met with us on Sunday too...crazy chinese people...ahhh I love them!
Tuesday...so we found this PI that told us that she would call us from her phone...as you may not know...when someone on the street says that they will call you from the flyer it means they are not going to call! But low-and-behold! This PI called us...so that was a pretty awesome miracle!
Wednes...so we had Eikaiwa again...and the same Saito san's heart is opening up way good! He asked us how to pray and at the end of Eikaiwa he said the closing prayer, and it was WAY good! We were way surprised! It's awesome to see people progress!
Thurs...ohh wait...thats today...haha, we met with Mizuguchi kyodai and it was a good lesson kinda...he doesn't remember ANYTHING! He has been an investigator for 30 years and he still doesn't know commandments and stuff...so we'll see if we can get him remembering, so that he can get baptized...we're thinking he might have Alzheimers...but yeah!
So yeah, hope all is well with everybody! I love you all! But yeah, we have to go now so bai-bai!
Fam: Yes I got the package! Thank you so much! Those pretzles are ridiculous! I love them! Are there other flavors? The weather here is just fine...everyone's been saying that it's going to start snowing, but so far so good. It does get pretty cold in the night's but it's not that bad. When we use computers we have to go to the Kokusai centa...so we travel like 15 minutes to use the computer. As for Keenan's letter...just send it back to the address...I've been doing that, and he gets them...so doso! And Mom, you are a tsukaresama! I hope teaching the classes don't wear you out too much! Say hi for Aja to me, and ask if there is anyone else you know that is in the classes that knows me! Say hi to them too! Umm...and what do you want for Christmas? Cause I have no idea...let me know! ummm...yeah, next week we'll send some pics! Peace!
Did you get my letter from the 8th of November? I wasn't sure if it would take longer now that you are at the district place.
