castle in Utsuki LOVE THIS SHIMAI!! こんにちは Ready for the craziest week yet!? So this week we met this guy who lives at the top of a huge hill. We talked to him and he said "I'm not going to join your church." We were like "okay, do you like English?" And he took an eikaiwa flyer (more on him later). So we had a lot of crazy MIRACLES!  I can't even tell you how amazing this week was. We went to Utsuki to visit a member. She wasn't home but we dendoed around there, and it was really fun and right next to the ocean. We honestly were lead so many times. This transfer is Whitney Shimai's last one, she goes home on Friday. I can't express how much I love her and how much she has shaped my mission. She is amazing and America is lucky to get her back.  MAKE SURE TO READ THE STORY AT THE END IT IS CRAZY! Spiritual keiken: Well, we had an amazing lesson with Waka Chan and Yoko Shimai! The spirit was so strong and they came to church!!!...

zone pictures before the dai senpai left for Japan... I love these people with my whole heart!   paper roses from a sweet sister  Konnichiwa Minasan (everyone)! Wow another week!. Time here is flying. This week was pretty amazing. Gawrys Shimai and I taught some great and not so great lessons. But it's all good, because either way we learned something new. We got a new investigator. Her name is Yui Kuwakara. She is super sweet and patient.  The oldest group of missionaries in our zone left for Nihon (Japan). My district is the next one to leave which is crazy. This week has had lots of laughs and some tears. Missions aren't easy, but they are worth it. Spiritual keiken:  Gawrys Shimai and I had a lesson with Yui.  The last lesson wasn't great and so we did our very best to prepare for this one. On the way over we realized we didn't have a question translated that we needed for a transition in the lesson. Right as we start to freak out a ...

knitting a hat for a soon-to-be baby in our ward! こんにちは So because of the weird transfer last week there are only a few days to write about. So yesterday was Miracle Monday!  We saw so many miracles. We had church and the members are so nice and kind. We had another great lesson with Tanaka San and she is progressing amazingly. Friday was a crazy p-day and we were biking all around Kurume and it was not very relaxing, but it was good that we got a lot of things done. Spiritual keiken: Yesterday we saw lots of miracles! We biked for 45 mins to try to find a less actives apartment.  She lives really far away. We found the apartment and she was not home. We had a little bit of time before we needed to head back home to get home on time and so we knocked a few doors. We knocked on one door and a man opened the door. He was nice and really curious about why two Gaijin (foreigners)  were at his door. He invited us in (his wife was home so we were good to go in)...
