Hello, hello!
It's the happiest missionary in the world over in southern
paradise, Japan! Yep! It's Sister Roberts again!!! And I even remembered how to
spell my name right today!
Ok, quite honestly, this has been a really hard week, but I
am still so so so happy! I have been sick almost this entire week actually... I
have a nasty cold that has made doing much missionary work a little hard... And
as if that weren't enough 2 days ago on Saturday night when we were over at a
member's house for dinner, I had an accident when I fell down their stairs! So
for the last couple days I've been house bound and not quite able to walk or
ride my bike, BUT last night I got a priesthood blessing and I was actually able
to ride my bike to the church today so I could email! Yaaaay! Happy p-day!!! No
broken bones this time =)
This week of the little that we were able to do, we were
able to meet with our investigator, Ray! We are still working on the word of
wisdom with her... When we went to her house we almost died of second hand
smoke, which I attribute partly to the cause of my getting sick... But it's ok!
No matter what, we just care so much about Ray and we're trying as hard as we
can to help her out and get her on a better path... she finally agreed to start
praying =)
Also even though we weren't able to go to church yesterday,
2 of our investigators showed up! We were so happy! Miyazaki is doing so well,
and it's just proof that even if I'm not super woman and can't do everything,
the Lord will do what he will with those prepared people! Yay!
Ok, so something else kind of cool is that I learned how to
cook takoyaki this week! Takoyaki is fried octopus pancakes! Sounds really
weird, but it's actually so delicious!
Also... Miyazaki got another set of elders this week! So now
we have 4 elders and 2 sisters! One of the elders is from Australia and he
looks like Prince William... so we call him Elder William. Every time we send
him an email we always write it in scriptural language and end it with
"your majesty". Then we put a little animation of a crown after it!
So... life is becoming a little fun =)
Other than that, not much to say, except that we're working
hard!
Hope everything is good at home!
Love you all!
Roberts Shimai!
