Yamaguchi - Countdown, 25 weeks!

May 30, 2016

So this week has been crazy as a 3 man! We have been seeing a ton of miracles. And it has been BUSY taking care of both areas, as we have both recently found a bunch of investigators. 
This week we set 3 Baptismal Dates. 
2 were for the other area, and one for ours. 
The one for ours is a guy named Sota. He is 20 years old, and is working full time. He is a way fun guy, but has some not very good habits. We talked about Heaven a little bit, and he said he feels like he is not going there. We talked to him about Baptism, and how we can become clean of all of our sins. Very spiritual lesson, and he agreed to be baptized on July 9th. 

We also went out with a British guy and a bunch of his friends on Saturday night. It was weird. But it sounds like he might have been baptized when he was 10 or 11 ish. He has a lot of interest, in some ways. He is an Atheist, but respects religion. Maybe we can reactivate him :)

An Elder who served here about a year ago visited this area this week, and it was good to talk to him a little bit. We got to go to a members house and eat with him and his mom.

This week is transfers. I think everyone is getting a little nervous about transfers. There could be a lot of changes in our zone this upcoming transfer. I have a feeling that my companion, Elder Hanley is going to be transferring somewhere probably, but we will see.

Things have been good. Everyone has been doing a lot better since Elder Cook came, and seems to be more spiritually ready for their everyday work. From hearing Elder Cook speak, I know that he is an apostle of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God and that it was translated through the prophet Joseph Smith. I know this Church is true.  I have a really good feeling about the work here in Japan, things are starting to take off, and it is really cool to see. 

Love all you guys

Elder Davies
