Elder Wheatley goes home this week, he finishes his mission,
so we visit a million people so you will recieve a million photos.
Investigator Update!
Yasuyo, mother of our investigator family who Elder
Culverwell and I found and started teaching back in July, has come to Church a
few times recently - even though we haven't been able to teach her all transfer
because she has been busy. She came this past week, and so did Elder Tashiro,
and area seventy who also did a great fireside after Church which Yasuyo stayed
for. In fact, Elder Tashiro really directed and applied it to Yasuyo and helped
her see what a miracle it was that she started learning about the Gospel, and
how it has and can continue to help her and change her life. After the fireside
they spent quite some time talking, too. I know Yasuyo had a spiritual
experience and after a while of her not really going anywhere, I really feel
like she is ready to start hearing the lessons and progressing again.
Last night we had our last lesson with Asuka, a long time
investigator. She has a number of problems, but last night we had a really
spiritual lesson in which we were able to identify the Spirit, and testify that
we knew that she could feel it too. Same as Yasuyo, I feel like Asuka is really
starting to progress and to go somewhere.

our last lesson with Asuka and also Watanabe Shimai who is the BEST member

We did service, pulled out a tree, had lunch with our man
Mayan who is the coolest Nihonjin on the island(s), and had dinner with the
famous Nobeoka family - the Kais.
Had another dinner at an Italian-like restaurant, checked
out some okay swords, and visited Haruka and took some weird photos like usual
