Week 15

 皆こんにちは!(´_ゝ`)/ this week has been wild, so we have had some awesome lesson with all the people we are teaching! I made some Japanese curry for Bailey shimai, haha. 


We got to see Amanda's puppy omg it's so cute. 



our fourth was pretty fun, we had some grandparents bring us chick fil a haha they just walk laps around the church and just brought it in. Too sweet lol. Then we had a big potluck with our district which was super fun, I got to eat some watermelon! 


The fourth is not the fourth without watermelon! the elder barely cooked the meat, it was not even pink, like full on RED. HAHAHA still ate it doe. I'm getting transferred to a really sketchy area so rip bc I have been in the nicest area since a got here. But the good news is NY NEW COMPANION WILL BE BROOKS SHIMAI! She was originally assigned to Tokyo south too! We were in the MTC together so now our Japanese is going to be SOO GOOD!  So I am probably going to have some STORIES soon. I was also able to reach out to some people about the Book of Mormon (モルモン書) and talk to some people about who God is to them, all in 日本語!! Was super cool!





This weeks come follow me was so interesting! So many great bits and pieces everywhere but I really liked Alma 24, such a great chapter! We talked about it in our wards institute and just had this amazing discussion about what it means to have a soft heart and how it can change us. When we have a soft heart we are able to learn from the spirit, something our teacher said that really stuck out to me was 
"a soft heart does not mean you are weak,it is a lot harder than a hardened heart. Jesus christ had THE softest heart and he is the furthest thing from weak."
Christ really is such an example of how we should be living our lives, and I am so grateful for that example so I can know how to change to be better.

愛知っています!!! がんばってください! キリストによって私たちはつみとにくたいのしをのりこえることができます!

Week 14

 ひさしぶりですね!

This week was WILD. We have been able to be in members homes so much lately! bc we are over a YSA ward, there is lots of relationship talk. someone wanna tell me how all the 20 years olds have no problem cuddling and kissing in front of missionaries lmao its so strange. 
Arianna got baptized!!! the service was seriously so great! the spirit was so strong and we were able to have a little after party and celebrate with her too! It was seriously so great and made me so happy:,)) 



We went to trader joes to get some flowers for Arianna and an employee ccame up to us and told us he was a member! we were like "Thats so sick! we are actually getting some flowers for our investigator who is getting baptized!" AND MANS BOUGHT THE FLOWERS FOR US. SO NICE OMG UwU. 



Yesterday was Sister Baileys birthday! we went to a members house and they made us a Japanse dinner and made a cake for her! they were the funniest family ever omg!




The light of christ is in everyone! Find the light! 愛しっています!!がんばってください!

Week 13

こんにちは!お元気ですか?父の日おめでと!
      wassup yall, This week was seriously such a miracle! We have been teaching this one girl for the past 3-4 months and have talked about baptism but that she had no interest in being concerted but liked our lessons. Wellll..... this week our relief society had a picnic and we invited all the girls we are teaching, turns out one of our fellowshippers picked up our girl thats getting baptized and Amanda! and they were a whoole SQUAD. The next day, she practically asked us to be baptized! She told us that seeing all these women in the church really inspired her! what a baddie. 
     I really suck at studying Japanese by myself rip.
     it has been so fun to be able to go back to members homes. Some members even took my comp and I to sushi! They tried making speak some 日本語 to the waiter but they didnt know like any either haha. 
   Everyone in Vegas has AT LEAST one dog. Its a dream.
I LOVE YALL, GOD LOVES YALL, HAVE A GOOD WEEK!
お疲れ様です!がんばってください!あいしっています!

week 11

みなさんこんにちは!!
    This week has been so wild! I got a new companion! Sister Bailey and I puttin in work. She is super fun and we are constantly peeing our pants laughing. Its so fun! turns out I am done being trained! Its still my first transfer so idk whats going on.
This week our president said siiikkkeee about us teaching in person, so we aren’t allowed to do that anymore which is a big yikes.
    We taught Arianna this week and set her on date! she told us that she talked to her parents about it and they were really supportive of it too! I am so excited for her! (yay for バプテスマ)
Our district has just been playing a lot of spikeball so im pretty pro at it now. We have an elder who served in Taiwan in our district so he teaches me some kanji every now and then! super sick. He also got a call today that he is probably going back June 15th or July 1st. SO THAT HAD ME PUMPED. 
 anyways, God is good. The Book of Mormon is true. I love the gift of tongues.
 あいしっています!がんばってください!

week 10

Haha this week was wild!!!! I had my last classes for Japanese which was really sad! I am going to miss my district so much, they were all the best. We were able to have almost every lesson this week IN PERSON. So epic. But Jesiah who we had been teaching just texted us joking about how he wishes he could be baptized this week so that it could happen before Sister Hughes left, and we were like ughhhh we wish too but it probably wont happen. ( He was on date for May 30th)
But we sent a screen shot of his texts to our district gc. and like withing 5 min both our DL and Zls called us, and were like he 100% can be baptized this week. So we called president and he gave us the go to get him DUNKED. SOOOO we had to plan this baptism in like 2 days. life was so crazy. We could only have about 8 people there and everyone had to be social distanced so it was wild.
It was cool to see him be baptized bc we both had been teaching him since the beginning. I WAS A BRAND SPANKING NEW MISSIONARY. I just learned very clearly, that I am not the teacher and that is all the spirits work for sure!










Week 9

みなさんこんにちは!

This week has been pretty much the same, I do Japanese most of the day and then teach a couple lessons throughout the night.
 We have been teaching Jesiah about 2 a week and he is getting baptized in like 2 weeks and he is beyond thrilled! He always has a funny story to tell us. He sees almost everything as a sign from God and its pretty cool to see the small miracles through his eyes.
 Arianna is a girl we have been teaching about 2 a week as well and she had no Christian background whatsoever! its been cool and I felt like she was set in my path to prepare me for the people of Japan :) She is progressing really well but we gotta just take the lessons real slow.
 Amanda is the last person we are teaching rn and she was taught by some elders in our mission like three times a week since quarantine and they just recently referred her to us. We had a couple passoff lessons and then our first lesson we did with her was a little rough bc she liked the elders. BUT we has a lesson with her on Saturday and we really just let the spirit guide it and she told us that out of all the lessons we have had so far, this was her favorite! so good to hear!
 hehe Sister Hughes and I did a devotional for our whole mission (ちょとむざかしですね) but right before president call us. We are thinking that he is like double checking that we were prepared. BUT he told Sister Hughes that she was going back to Nauvoo! *(she is a church history missionary and this is her outbound mission!) 
 HOPEFULLY THAT MEANS I AM GOING TO JAPAN SOON! President told me that he thinks I will go this summer and that he is waiting everyday fro good news for me. 
 Thats really all I have from this week tbh. 
がんばってください!皆さんあいしっています!いげんのたまもんおはしんのです!
