The Power of Chocolate Cake

Hello!

What a busy week! It hit rainy season and it's been raining like crazy lately! I slipped in some mud last night so that was fun!

First on pday we went to minamata and visited some less active members and had dinner with on of the families there! It was a lot of fun! The husband is taking a "break" from church right now and it's sad because he's a returned missionary and everything! We challenged them to do come follow me as a family. Wednesday we had a cooking English class! The students learned how to make different kinds of pancakes following an English recipe! It was pretty fun! The pancakes turned out good too even though I made up all the recipes! Haha

Thursday we had exchanges in Kumamoto and I had raw horse meat for the first time! It was way delicious! Friday we had a lesson with one of our investigators and we had a way good lesson! However she doesn't feel ready to pray yet... It's nice because we have plenty of people to teach, but they're not progressing as fast as we would like!

Saturday we unleashed the power of the chocolate cake and delivered it to a bunch of different people! We also delivered it to the less active that we made lemon cake with last week. She was so happy she gave us cheese cake in exchange! Then I simply invited her to church and she said she would come! Then she came for the first time in over 7 years!! It was such a miracle! Everyone was so happy to see her! We also had another less active come and give a talk on Sunday! She bore a way powerful testimony! She also got baptized around the same time as the other less active who came and so they were so happy to see each other! Hopefully they can help each other to both come to church more often! Our investigator also came to church this week! So many miracles!

Love

Breaking Records!

What a week!! Things have been crazy lately! After finally telling people that I'm going home we've been way busy with appointments! We also had a goodbye party at the church cause next week not everyone can come. Also this week at church was AMAZING! So a less active's wife and 4 kids (who are all active) finally returned home from America and it was so awesome having a full family at church!! Also a family from Aichi came and visited for obon. And then also a less active member came for the first time since moving to yatsushiro branch! All in all I think we had about 21 members at church!! That's a record by far! It was so fun! Also this week we made these sick notebooks for the members to use when they study the Scriptures! There's also a lot of questions that are in the Come Follow Me text that they can write in them. Scripture study is way important so we're hoping that they will all use the notebooks to enrich their studies! This week was also crazy

Happy Halloween

Hello! What a week! They fly by faster and faster! It's still pretty warm down here in Okinawa so we're way blessed! This week was transfer week, but luckily we didn't transfer so nothing too crazy on our end. But the Oroku Elders are both new and it's been fun working with such great Elders. Everyone is from Utah haha!  So this week we weren't able to meet with any investigators. We've actually kind of had to put them all on the shelf and start fresh again. Our main focus right now is contacting less actives and visiting members. We've seen a ton of miracles from doing so! There are a ton of lessons actives here. We met this one old lady who didn't even know she was a member! She was like, "oh yeah I was baptized but I don't really go to church or anything, like husband was a member though!" it's pretty funny to see, that's back before they had a baptismal interview and requirements haha.  We did meet with one potential

Wait the Extra Hour

Ola This week was awesome!! We were able to set a new baptismal date with another investigator! Her name is Riyo, from Osaka! We met her housing last week. We pressed the intercom on her door and at first she quickly said no to us, but then as we were leaving, she said wait! And asked if we were the American missionaries that teaches free English class. We said we were and so she was like, "I'm in the middle of work, come back tomorrow." so we go back the next day and she's not there, but we sit on her apartment stairs and drink drinks from a nearby vending machine cause it was pday, and we going to start housing the area at 6. It was 5pm and we didn't really have time to go home so we just decided to sit and wait. I stood up at 6 so start going and she walks up the stairs right at that time! She forgot and thought the appointment was at 6! She turns out to be way awesome and we are able to teach her the restoration and she agreed to meet again. We taught
