Well.... where does one begin this week. This week I did missionary work under water. We had a pretty nice typhoon here in Tokyo that resulted in some fun memories! Typhoons, they're a dang good time. I will tell you that for free. Yesterday while housing in the POURING RAIN, the wind got so strong that cute Sister Robertson's umbrella flipped inside out. It didn't do us much good. BUT THE RAIN SUIT SURE DID. Yep. You heard it here folks..... The rain suit came out for action this week.....

ASAKUSAAAAAAA!! |
So we went to Asakusa (a wayyyyy famous shrine in Tokyo) for pday, and yes I will send more pictures next week, but because of it, our time is a litttttttle shorter today, so I'll just share something cool that happened this week.
Last Sunday we were asked by our ward mission leader to start visiting a certain member every day. We weren't really sure of all the details, but we knew she was having a hard time. We went over and she was in a real tough spot. I felt so sad for her, and just wanted her to feel God's love SO BAD.
Well from that day on we began praying with her every night as well as visiting, talking and reading the scriptures with her every day. It was amazing how things just came to our minds of what to share and what to talk about. From the first day we went over to how things are now, I can say without a doubt in my mind that the gospel changes people. Seeing how down she was and how even smiling was work at the beginning of this last week, to now where she is smiling and bearing her testimony to us every time we talk, it's AMAZING.
Sometimes you have weeks where you are literally under water both literally and mentally. Me too! This week was one of them! Sometimes things get so stressful out here that I don't know what to do, but through this experience of working with this member, I have truly come to know that when we lean to God, He will ALWAYS help us through our trials.
THE CHURCH IS TRUE

Fun fact: Japanese people are all about neutrals. Like there are no bright colored clothes..... like ever. Everyone ALWAYS matches. #yougojapan
