Hello!

Hello!

This week was super full-

We had a fun Splits day with our Sister Training leaders and got to do some great finding. We were able to give out so many book of Mormons and talk to a lot of people! I learned a lot about how do be a better missionary and better at talking to everybody!

I have been praying each day to find the people or person that I need to talk to today. It has been a great experience as we have been lead and directed by the spirit to find the people that we need to talk to. We found 2 new investigators this week by following the promptings of the spirit!

Well Yoshioka Shimai is doing great- We had a lesson about the Atonement in Sunday school and afterword I asked her what she thought or if she learned anything new. She said that before she joined that church, she was paralyzed for a while because of a disease and lost some mobility in her mouth. She also had a lip tremmor. But after she recieved the Gift of the Holy Ghost, the tremor went away and she has full lip mobility now! MIRACLE! and she was like I know that that was because of Heavenly Father and Jesus, and thats what the Atonement means to me.

So cool.

Also her husband has been getting way better and should be able to come home soon. she said he has a bunch of suits to wear but he lost a lot of weight in the Hospital, so she said he needs to gain weight and then he can come to church haha we have devised a plan to feed him only cookies! SHe also gave us her daughters information because she also wants to learn about the gospel!! she lives in Hiroshima.

Okay so We had a last lesson with Tamura san because we are TRANSFERING! both of us. okay so we get this random call on saturday that was like you are both transfering. But i cant tell you where! from the APs. We were like....what? you cant just do that to us!!! But when you both transfter I guess they tell you early.

ANyways our lesson was great and sad because we were leaving but happy because she is accepting the gospel and learnng how to apply its teachings. SHe is bringing specific questions to Heavenly father. We shared with her about the Brother of Jared and how he had used prayer and preparation in order to recieve council from god! It was awesome, we then talked about the atonement and how it applies to us- it helps us over come sins and guilt and also to feel comfort and love. She cried a lot because she felt the spirit.

Also as a side note her 2 year old started calling me Anesan and asks when I am comming back over all the time!! That means older sister. AHH so cute!!! I MISS BABIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ANyways okay so other miracle: Nakamoto shimai hasent prayed in a lesson since christmas but she has been reading the scriptures, meeting with other members again, and PRAYING AGAIN! she prayed in our lesson!!!! MIRACLES


I feel a lot of closure about this area and it has been helping me to cope with the change of TRANSFERRING!!!!!!!!!!!

I learned a rreally great lesson about integrity this week. I have been praying to be more humble and I read a great talk that said we have to admit our weaknesses without alibi. And i was like..oh. shoot. I need to work on that. So I have had some great opportunities to put that into practice this week. I am thankful for the prompt and thorough  cleansing that comes from repentance. So in order to have humility, I need to have more integrity.

Okay so I guess you want to know where I am transfering.....
