Okay you guys look way old in your pictures. I am going to come back and you guys are going to be taller than me and have like drivers licenses and be graduated and stuff.
I am glad that nobody died in the fifteen feet of snow- that sounds fun but scary to drive in!
This week was great- we had some nice freezing rain that we housed all day in. Basicaly I was not dry the whole day. But it built some character. We also found FIVE investigators this week which is a personal record I think. I just know that as we show our faith, God will provide. Keep doing what you are doing and you will see miracles if you believe!
We had a wonderful lesson with Ami Shimai, she is so great. We are doing a weekly scripture study with her to help her get more familliar with the church because she was inactive for so long. She is such a good missionary too- she tells all her friends about the church and posts stuff on facebook about it. She took us to see the ube illumination light thing that was really fun- we went with her Aunt Iida Shimai. It was fun! I love them so much.
So this cutest lady we met a while ago called the other day and set up an appointment for herself! She was like yeah we arent going to talk about religion,,,but literally thats all we talked about. It was way good BRT and we are meeting with her this week to talk more about church- she is coming to church on Sunday!
Tsugumi San came to church this week which was a surprise! SHe said she couldnt but she did. THere just happened to be three young women from another branch there for a special meeting so they totally fellowshipped her and told her all about Christ. It was awesome. She was totally into the pictures of Christ Sister Miura used in the lesson- especially the second coming. We have a real lesson with her this week!!!!!!!!!!
We were able to contact a less active 21 year old girl who I had a prompting to go visit- she is never home but she was home! We had some good BRT and hopefully will be able to meet this week or next week. She is a music major! yayy! but lets be real, you know how much time music majors have..aka none. So I will be praying hard for her to be able to meet with us! or just to come to church!
We had some deep cleaning to do this week so we had fun cleaning and reorganizing the apartment. it looks way good. We passed our cleaning check. Yay! (Yatta!)
So Ive started putting foot warmers into my shoes- they literaly save my life! It is so much easier to house and go tracting at night when you have warm feet!!
I have been studying about Solomon and how awesome he is- I read in 1 kings 8: 13 which says ``I have surely built thee an house to dwell in. a settled place for thee to abide in forever``. I love this scripture because as we are building our faith and exercising the atonement, we allow the Spirit to dwell in us and at the same time, the Savior is preparing our mansions in heaven that we will be able to dwell there forever!
King Solomon was blessed with an Understanding Heart. He knew how weak he was but yet he just asked for knowledge of how to help others and he turned out pretty awesome. I am thankful for his example!
Have a great week! Stay warm!
Love,
Sister Nelson
