My mission "days left" counter number is now officially smaller than my "days ago" number! I think that is crazy! It was another crazy week! But filled with lots of fun!
Last week we went to monkey park for zone pday! A zoo with only monkeys, It was wild! So many monkeys, I loved it. The place was pretty sketchy, but like, of course it was ya know. We all had lots of fun looking at the monkeys!
We got to volunteer at this little kids activity and serve them food! I was having so much fun with the kids! They liked practicing their English by playing a game where I said a color in English and they had to go find it! I was impressed with how well they knew their colors!
We went on an adventure with one of our friends and the elders to see the beautifull fall trees. Thsre was a pretty lit up area too. I don't really know how to describe it haha, but it was pretty and fun. Also cold, but fun!
I don't know who remembers the woman we are teaching named Mami, but she is doing so good! Every lesson we have with her is so amazing! She is doing good at reading the book of mormon and is studying lots on her own. When she said the prayer to close our lesson, the member we were with was shocked. Her prayer was so good it "sounded like a member". She really is trying to understand the gospel before she makes the commitment of baptism. So far, she is doing great!
Us and the elders got to go to a members house to help them pick all their persimmons. It is a yummy fruit that I don't know how to describe! Sorry! We ended up with about 900 from the tree! Afterwards they fed us an amazingggg lunch!!! We love the Imaizumi Family!!
Last night we had a mini mission devotional and after everything, our president opened the floor for some comments. An elder said something that i thought was so cool! I hope we all know that Heavenly Father only gives us trials He knows we can overcome. I have heard it lots of times. That being said, a way to measure your strength should be on the trials you are given. Because He knows you are capable! You are strong enough!! Sometimes we can be caught up in a hard time thinking why me, why is does God do this. It's because He knows we can overcome it and more importantly grow from it! He is #1, always on our side! He loves you!
I love youuuu
Make it a great week!
