This week went
by so quickly, yet things that happened just a day or two ago seem like forever
ago...
On Tuesday, we
visited with Sano Shimai! I love her! She gave me a cute kaki keychain (we set up this
appointment because we thought I was leaving, but then I didn't transfer away). We also visited with Wendy and Imanari Yuka, our
two progressing investigators. we also had
time to go streeting for two hours straight.
How was there so much time in one day?
We spent Wednesday
in Kasukabe with Sister Nicholes as we waited for Gushiken Shimai to arrive from
Niigata. We visited with Kanno Shimai, the
lady who handed out 16 Books of Mormon in the hospital in Koshigaya area. She is a dendou fireball. We also found some beautiful pink trees and snapped
a few pictures...
And yes, the
sakura are blooming! They are so beautiful! This is probably the time of year that I take
the most pictures! The rivers are lined with
sakura, and there are pink flowers everywhere!
I definitely want to plant sakura in my yard in the future.
On Friday we
got a phone call from someone we didn't know... She was a dropped investigator from
two years ago, and she wanted to meet! It
was a crazy miracle! She came to kodomo eikaiwa
and we got to talk with her about...
--
Stop! I forgot that at this time of year all of the
people running for office drive around in these cars with megaphones and tell you
to vote for them! One just drove by, and
it was way natsukashii.

...her problems
and her interests. We should be meeting regularly
from now on, which is way exciting.
Sunday was CONFERENCE! I LOVE CONFERENCE! SO MUCH!
We watched the Priesthood session live, and then we watched the Saturday
sessions after that. It was all really good. I loved the music and the talks... the Spirit
was so strong, and I felt so grateful for continuing revelation through living prophets.
Lastly, Sunday
night we visited a referral from the elders named Kudo, and she was home! She had been dropped a long time ago, and she
said that it would be okay for us to come back next week and share a message with
her family! It was a really sweet tender
mercy of the Lord!
I love you all! Have a great week!
Love, Crandall
Shimai
