Loaves and Fishes

 Every week when I write an email, I think to myself how the words I write on this, will never express the feelings of the things I want to share. 

I am currently a ZL of a Zone over Shikoku, which is a big Island in Japan. It is notoriously known for missionary work being hard. Missionaries will knock houses for days and not even get to talk to people. Yesterday we had the opportunity to do reports, and to hear about the missionaries in the zone. Every single companionship was overwhelmed with how many miracles they saw. 

I would like to share one of mine.

Yesterday we walked into church after a good week of hard work. We greated the members, and before we knew it, friend after friend started walking into the doors. There are 3 sets of missionaries in our area. A good week of missionary work in Japan is 1 friend to church. This week during our sacrament meeting there were 12 friends that came. 

I have been reading about the Loaves and the fishes. 

I sat in the sacrament attendance and I was overwhelmed with thd spirit. 6 missionaries gave there wimpy loaves and fishes to the lord. I was able to witness a miracle.

This is the lord's work. 

I am grateful to take part. 

I'd invite you all to join in it.

Alma 16:16 And there was no inequality among them; the Lord did pour out his Spirit on all the face of the land to prepare the minds of the children of men, or to prepare their hearts to receive the word which should be taught among them at the time of his coming—

I also ate a bowl of udon that could've fed a family of 4. It was delicious 😋!
