Blowfish

The Shimonoseki city animal is a blowfish and I guess they export the most in the world or something like that. This week has been good. It's been hard but good. We were out dendoing and we're going to contact this guy and he started peeing on the side of the street. We got kicked off of property by a supposed 'landlord'. We've gotten asked about 'two different Christianities' and we asked if he meant the testaments and he said 'oh yeah.. Probably.' And we've met some very wonderful and nice people that are ready to hear the gospel too. We testify to everyone we can and give them that opportunity to hear the gospel. 

We are progressing with our investigator Matsuo and he has a baptism date for next month and we have started talking about the temple and he wants to go because he loves the peace at the church and we explained that baptism doesn't mean it's done, there's more and
he'll make it to the temple. Our other investigator Shuuhei just accepted baptism after a very spiritual lesson in which all we did was read and explain Alma 7 and then he committed himself to learn more and we asked if he'd be baptized and said he wants to but that next
month is too soon. Both of these people Elder Flippo had met before I got here. Shuuhei loves the church and always drags his friend to everything and every lesson and church and he stays all three hours. This last week he had said that everything at the church in the
lessons was tailored to him exactly and you can just see the happiness he receives from the gospel in his eyes and he is one that will stay in the church.

Japan is a wonderful country with wonderful people, but that doesn't mean Satan doesn't have control over people's hearts because he does, just like everywhere else, and it's easy to see and we are so  extremely blessed to be members of this wonderful church and receive
so much joy from it and from Jesus Christ.

I love you all! Hopefully I can email you all individually at some point, I will try! Thank you!
