Hey! This week was crazy! So many miracles! This week I really felt like I was reaping the fruits of my labor this week haha! The Lord blessed us with another awesome investigator!! She was a past investigator of about a year ago, we met her when we first got to Oroku, but she said she was too busy to meet with us. But then randomly, she calls us and says she wants to meet! She just quit her job so she literally has all the time in the world now haha! We had a way good lesson with her and had her pray at the end. She was like "wow, I really needed that prayer." Way awesome! The Lord has prepared her! I'm excited to see what happens with her! Our other investigator that has a baptismal date is still progressing and said he would keep all the commandments! He loves coffee, but as soon as we told him that we don't drink coffee, he hasn't had any! We've also been making a ton of return appointments and finding new investigators! Truly blessed! Funn

Staying in Oroku

I don't have a lot of time this week so I'm gonna make it short! This week was sick! Learning everyday! This week was transfers, I'm blessed to be staying in Oroku and Elder Barlow went District Leader! One funny thing. We housed into this lady from Spain, she went crazy preaching to us and telling us to read the Bible again. She kept saying Jesus is NUMBER ONE!! Way funny. We just smiled and nodded and then got out of there haha! What she said wasn't wrong, just said it way crazy! Haha super passionate. Our investigator is so golden! We have to extend his baptism date a few weeks, cause we figured he doesn't actually understand a lot, he just has a lot of desire. But we started to actually teach to his needs and he's progressing again! It's crazy how receptive he is! He's old but God has been preparing him!!  It's starting to heat up more. You step outside and start sweating! Thank goodness for AC! Love you al

Miracles this Week

Miracles this week! We've been working way hard lately, and it's paying off!! So this week, we received the Sister's investigator from Itoman. It's unusual for this to happen since Itoman is its own area. Usually missionaries only pass investigator if they're in the same area. But for some reason we got this investigator! He's way prepared! He's an old guy and had a really hard life, so ready for baptism!! He is super receptive and always says how he wants to change his life. He's never really studied before, so reading the Book of Mormon seemed like it would be a challenge, but he calls and says how he now likes to study! Way crazy! So we might have a baptism soon!! We've been finding some new people too, the Lord is truly recognizing our efforts! Not a lot of time this week, but I'm doing super good.  On Sunday , the ward gave us Two Gigantic bags of food!! My jaw dropped! 4 cans of spam too!! I love it here! Also had transfers t

I sent a weekly last week, but I emailed at McDonald's and it somehow didn't send and deleted itself! :( but I'm still alive! This week was another week of hard work! Some funny things happened! First I got a little bug bite on my hand and the next day it swelled up super big and my hand turned into a club! It's okay now though! We did weekly planning at the beach and I got way dark! Crazy thing happened last week! So we were housing around these apartments and this guy comes out, he's smoking and stuff, and we're talking to him like normal. Then he suddenly says like he knows Mormons and what we're doing because he served as a missionary a long time ago in Fukuoka. Then he just walked away and me and Elder Barlow were like uhhhh. Way weird haha! Miracles! We're teaching this one lady with really bad arthritis so it's hard for her to do anything really. We taught her with a member and our member joint was awesome. Probably one
