weeks in my mission. I don't know what it was, but this week me and
Elder Egbert wanted it bad, we worked way hard and we saw amazing
miracles! It was a very busy week. We had lots of stuff that we had
to plan for the zone, and we actually had our zone meeting on Friday
so we had to prepare a lot of stuff for that! But, even though we
were really busy with lots of "business" work, we fought for time to
meet with our investigators and we saw huge miracles.
This week, as Zone leaders, we really wanted to show everyone that we can
be teaching more and that we should be getting closer to these
Standards of Excellance that President Budge has given us. So we went
out and just worked. We were working to just teach as many people as
we could, and as many investigators as we could and when we weren't
teaching, we were planning for Zone Conference. I don't know what it
was but something was just helping us be able to meet with everyone we
wanted to. It just goes to show that God is hastening his work, and
all we have to do is just work our hardest and he really takes care of
the rest! We ended up this week having done really well
"statistically" which obviously doesn't really matter, but what does
matter is that all those people that we were able to teach, were
really able to come so much closer to Christ than they would have if
we didn't meet with them. It was just a really amazing week! Me and
Elder Egbert are really just working together super well right now.
We both have the same goals and are working really closely together to
help this area and this zone see tons of success and baptisms! I am
so grateful for Elder Egbert and for his great example to me and how
much I have been able to learn from him and continue to learn from
him. He is an amazing missionary!
This week was easter! it was really fun to be teaching everyone why
this sunday was so special and the best part was we were able to show
everyone the "because of him" video! I actually have it downloaded on
my ipad, and so we could show anyone we wanted the video! It was such
a great way to teach! It brings the spirit so strongly and they
really feel like even if they don't understand fully what happened,
that it is important and they want you to teach them. I love this
video. If you haven't watched it, check it out. It really has
strengthened my testimony so much! It also is such a blessing that we
have these ipads to be able to use for missionary work. i am pretty
convinced that God helped these things be created merely for preaching
the gospel. they are amazing tools. i was talked to a soon to be
mission president in kobae japan that there are 400 missions in the
world and only 38 have ipads. we are the first international mission
to have them and so it truly is such a blessing, but also a big
responsibility! The Brethren are always watching the Tokyo Japan
mission and it is exciting, but also pretty intense!
Life here is just going great here in Tokyo! Things are really just
going way good and I really feel like me and Elder Egbert just hit the
ground running this transfer and we are going to see amazing things!
if you all could just pray for T_____ this week, that his mom will let
him be baptized that would be amazing! I love you all and hope you
know I pray for each of you every night! Talk to you soon!
Love
