So this week, as you all know, was Valentine's!!! Because of that, we went and heart attacked everyone we know in our area all week and it was so awesome! On Valentine's Day itself, we went and ate sushi with Katou Shimai and Komori-san! It was so much fun. I ate lots of shrimp nigiri (rice with a shrimp on it) and it was super yummy. It was just love love and more love! And now we wanna keep doing it because it was such an awesome thing! The ward was so happy and when the ward is happy, we're happy.
On Friday, Yamashita Chourou, the area seventy in charge of the Asia North Area, came for a mission conference! He emphasized showing love to our investigators and showing faith by inviting investigators to be baptized in two weeks on the first or second lesson. It's really intense, but I feel like we're going to see an awesome change in the pace of the work because of the changes he's made.
Also on Saturday we got to volunteer at the Kyoto Marathon Expo! It was so much fun! We met fun nihonjin and got to hand out race packets and numbers and we got cool jackets too! It was awesome cos we rarely get to do service projects like that here. Nihonjin generally don't like to accept help because they're so self reliant, so it's really nice to be able to serve people.
And then! On Sunday Shinji came to church! It was a literal miracle because he's been sooooooooo busy editing thousands of job interview videos for work. But he came! He has so much faith it was so amazing to see! He's such a sweet, gentle person. We all love him so much.
Well I'm off to have more adventures in Kyoto! See you next week!
