uhhhh KIMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COOLEST CAT EVER. I am SO excited for her. And I made a plan to hope on that plane to Chile with you and shadow you for a year and a half while I begin to build my resume for my future top secret career. Sound like a plan? Sounds like a plan.
I Cant think of anything right now except kimber in chile like salsa dancing. goodness.
uhhh this week? This week was incredible! I love dendoing with Nigh Shimai. It is super fun. We found a whole bunch of new investigators this week! Had a lot of great experiences. One of the highlights of my week was the phone call I got on like friday---it was stevenson shimai telling me that everything is okay with Aiko, things are going great- and she is on track to be baptized next Sunday!!! It has been a long time coming, and she is an angel. please pray for her this week!! She needs a lot of support!
Next Sunday is also Nigh Shimais birthday...I would ask you to all call her and wish her a happy birthday....but I suppose that is kind of a no-no haha. Just send her some hugs and smiles in the form of brain waves. I will make sure she takes some time to sit down and receive them...
Speaking of Nigh Shimai- she is incredible!!!! I love being her companion- but we do have one problem. Both of us have this laughing problem. We were at a members house last week- and Nigh shimai decided to tell me a story -while the member was in the kitchen-. Mistake number one...mistake number 2- she cant stop laughing when she tells this story. She told me all about this dog in her former area- who is blind and deaf...and lame....wore a diaper. When it wanted to go on a chair it would cry and the owner would pick it up. When it wanted to lay on the floor it would cry...it had a huge growth on its stomach...yeah so she told me this and man. We lost it. I cannot tell you how many times we have burst out laughing this week. Yesterday we tried to start companionship study- but we couldn't stop laughing. It was getting baaaad. But man, I am SO happy haha. Canadians are the coolest!!
Also, we had an incredible opportunity!! I don't know if you heard about the huge mud slides in Hiroshima- I think 74 people died. It was huge. We got to go volunteer for that- getting rid of all the mud. It was crazy to see cars piled on top of each other- houses completely destroyed. We get to go back again next week! they will be cleaning up for a while.
hmm. appears I have a tiny bit of time left. I will send pictures!
Love you all!!!! The church is true! It can heal hearts and lift you higher than anything else in the world! Book of Mormon is the best adventure story there will ever be. Heavenly Father loves everyone like crazy!!! He is patient, loving, and well aware none of us is perfect, but He loves us anyways, and helps us every step of the way! Life is GOOD! I love you all!! Have an incredible week filled with adventure, studying, and things you have never done before!!
Love always and always and always,
Lane Shimai
ps sorry, maybe next week instead of telling you about the saddest dog ever- I could share a miracle story....I will try to organize my thoughts a bit better next week!
