Jen was set apart as a missionary so I spent waaay too much
time writing to her saying how proud of her I was, SO, I have just a few
minutes left of the clock just to remind everyone that I am still alive and
kicking and that Ishigaki is the best place on Earth.
This week has seen the reactivation of a sister in our small
yet cosy branch (we average about 17 people every week at church); our
investigator being knocked down and has jumped right back up, testifying to us
the strength of the atonement and how the desire to change gives strength from
our loving God who wants us to do our best; we met a bunch of amazing potential
investigators, one of which said in our first meeting with her that she
believed our teachings to be true and is super excited to start studying the
Book of Mormon for herself; a random man on the street stopped us and bought us
lunch one day when I was hungry; we cut grass with scythes; I gave my first
cohesive lesson; and we ate at a place called 'Gasto' where I unknowingly ate
cow tongue.
This week has brought so many blessings and I have seen some
wonderful miracles because of the service to the Lord. No matter what situation
we are in or what our beliefs are - service is the greatest thing we can do for
anyone, because love is what makes us human.
Love Elder Wheeler
