all the beautiful gardens

For a relief society activity, we went with the sisters and visited several different gardens in the area. They were so beautiful....as you will be able to see from the pictures! I wanted pictures of everything because ever corner had something new and amazing!







I think we'll be eternal sister companions



I think I need to make some changes to our yard when I get home!




The details are just unreal.

first meal in Nihon --shrimp tempura udon-- こんにちわ So I have survivied a full week in Nihon! Its crazy how busy on a mission you are. We have packed schedules but we always follow the spirit and try to serve the amazing people of Nihon! So this week was a lot better than last week. Last week was really hard, missions are  just hard, but I was able to rely on Jesus Christ and make it through it. This week we taught eikaiwa (our free english class). Not a ton of people showed up, but it was so fun to help teach. We have amazing ward members here in Kurume. Akiyama きょうだい (brother Akiyama) helps in our eikaiwa. He came early and set up chairs. Nihara  きょうだい (brother Nihara) brings us milk every week. There are so many other amazing people here who love to serve. Tanaka San (our golden investigator)  grew a lot this week! We had a couple lessons and her desire to be baptized is growing more and more each time. Spiritual keiken: This week we had interviews wit...
