Japan 2 months 3 weeks-20

Bean Shower. Candy. 

Waterfall. We are so cool.

I only have like 10 minutes because we are going to the waterfall place (that I am going to send pictures of) for our district activity BUT I am going to type so hard. 

This week was really just crazy. Literally insane. So we visited this on Less Active member with a HUGE head. I mean HUGE. He looks like Wario. So we were talking to him and right before we were about to leave he said to be careful because there are a lot of weird people wandering around Sapporo lately. So we were walking home and this lady that we said "konbanwa" (good evening) to stopped us and said that she knows the sister missionaries. She talked to us in a VERY flirty way and one thing is she is about 60 years old. So she asked us where we were going and we said home because we are hungry and she said come with me. She walked us (very slowly) back to her apartment and then we had to tell her so many times that we can't go inside with her. So she had a hard time with that then she came back some plants and a present. She said that we looked tired and sweaty so she gave us a little towel. Then she started to touch my watch. We were getting way freaked out by her so Brown Choro asks her what her hobbies are. She said that she loves piano, singing, and educating little boys!!!!!!!! We freaked out! I had such a hard time not laughing. Right then Brown Choro just said okay thanks for today bye! And we left hahaha. We have met sooo many crazy weird people that have tried to kidnap us. Even a man. Yes we have a gay investigator. BUT yesterday he called us and said that he has been having a really hard time lately but from reading from the Book of Mormon and the Pamphlet that we gave him, he said that he needs this. He said he needs God and to feel forgiveness for things he has done in his life. It was really amazing. He is really interesting, and loves to surprise us. Like wearing a dress one day... Well we also met with so many investigators this week who have been expressing how weird they think prayer is. They think that it is weird that they can literally speak to God and that he REALLY wants to listen to our prayers. I know that that is true. I know that He wants to hear from us. Testifying to them has only made it stronger for me. Prayer is such an amazing thing. All we have to do is talk, and He will listen. It is amazing to see our investigators just try to do what we ask them to do. They have a lot of doubts, but they try and EVERY TIME they say that they felt something different. They may not know what it is, but they felt it. They are moving from prayer as something they have to do, to something they want to do. Interesting because that is struggle I have had. I found my prayers being repetitive and boring, but when I TALKED to God rather than just saying what I felt like I had to say, my prayers became meaningful and I wanted to pray. 

I am so sorry that this letter is so short. I promise that next week will be better. I love you all so much. Thanks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for the package this week family. I was SO happy. Seriously best day ever. Love you all so hard. Be excellent to each other.

I had an idea this week. I want you all to do a miracle journal. I will do it too while on my mission, but I want you to record EVERY miracle you see while I am gone and then when I get back we will share them.
