transfer calls came and I'm staying in Kobe with Croft shimai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D I'm super grateful. <3 <3 I don't have a ton of time because we're going down to Sannomiya to get lunch with all the missionaries and our assistant ward mission leader and a bunch of awesome people from church and I'm so excited!!! (:

We had some super awesome lessons with our friend from Iran (we'll call him F) and also some amazing japanese women. We taught our friend from Iran about the Restoration of the gospel and all about prophets and it just clicked in his mind and he was soooo intrigued about the prophet that we have on the earth today. And, thanks to the office elders who already have ipads, we were able to pull up the last conference and watch President Monson speak in PERSIAN!!! it was awesome. (: well I guess it was a translator, but whatever language it's the word of God! The light in F's eyes was brilliant and I'm so excited for him. HE'S SO PREPARED I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT IN WORDS. The Spirit is so incredible in lessons with him. 

Also I've concluded that my favorite thing in the entire world is listening to investigators pray, especially for the first time. I wonder how Heavenly Father feels when His children pray to Him for the first time. I can't even imagine how excited He is because He loves these people perfectly and has been guiding them for so long to turn to Him. MISSIONARY WORK IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Also side note, all of the 8 missionaries in this ward sang with a boy in our ward who leaves on his mission to Sendai, Japan in 2 weeks in sacrament meeting yesterday and it was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We sang ''I know that my Redeemer lives'' and the Spirit flooded the room because it's true!! Jesus Christ lives again!!!!!! And He's sitting on the right hand of God and is always there to help us if we turn to Him!

I love you all!!
