Isaiah 45:6
That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.

Going back to Sendai!

So this week has been a real crazy week. Quite an adventure. So on Monday of last week we had a Zone P-day and my zone pretty much went to go play this game: Park-golf...which seems pretty fun, but yeah, I didn't go with them because I had an appointment with Kohama-san. (Don't remember if I said anything about him, but yeah, he is our golden. He pretty much reads the scriptures and feels the Holy Ghost in his chest and understands the scriptures better then I do.) So I did the lesson with Kohama-san and it was a great lesson. On Tuesday we had a training with President in Tomakomai and it was really good. He announced that we are going to go back to Sendai, and we get to Volunteer in Sendai for about 3 days doing regular volunteer work, and then after that we go back to the regular wards and stuff for regular missionary work. So yeah, and also Taniuchi choro, the former AP came down and stayed with me in Tomakomai for the rest of the week. Kohama-san also came to Eikaiwa and then we did this "Non-smoking Program" with him, and it was pretty good. He decided that he was going to give up smoking. Then on Wednesday, we met this guy named Shinichi-san and we did a super good lesson and then we committed him to do a bunch of stuff but he pretty much said that he wouldn't do anything...so I wonder what will happen with him. We also had a lesson with the Arima family and it was pretty good too. So then on Thursday we met with Kohama-san again and it was a way good lesson and he is going to get baptized...had a way spiritual lesson and we are going to get him baptized! Then on Friday we did a bunch of stuff too, but Kohama-san's lesson was so crazy! He had a problem with Tea at him work place and the first time he asked his boss if he could bring his own drink, he got told he couldn't, so we told him to call his boss, and his boss told him that it was ok for some reason...so he pretty much saw a miracle right in front of his eyes! and we talked about the rest of the Commandments and it was a way good lesson. On Saturday we met with him again and it was for his baptism interview...he passed with flying colours and it was so great! So awesome! We were so excited to see his baptism! Then that day after the baptism, he gave us a call and told us that his mother was against it. His mom also forced him to smoke so AAHHHHHH!!! We didn't see a baptism. Dang, crazy moms! His mom literally had the devil inside her...how in the world did that baptism not happen...I'm still baffeled! The devil is totally real, and it's scary! So then on Sunday, we had church like regular...we did have Shinichi-san come to church, so that was pretty cool. I gave a testimony and then right after church we pretty much went home...so yeah, bye bye to Tomakomai, and now I'm going to be here in the Honbu for the next 3 days until Wedesday, when I get to go home! Yay! I can't wait to help the people in Sendai! Crazy! We are going back! I'm so excited! It's going to be great! Hope everyone else is having a good day! Bye!
