ゼロからヒーローまで (From Zero to Hero)

Konnichiwa minasan! 

This week was crazy busy. We visited a less-active, Ishimaru , with our awesome dendo shunin (Ward mission leader). (Side note: our dendo shunin, Daisuke Kyoudai is actually our best friend in the whole world it's great we love him he's the best he sticks up for us and our ideas and basically our current relationship is he's Hercules and we're the muses singing Zero to Hero at him. Literally Zero to Hero is our exact feelings about him It's a good time. We're getting so much done for the ward because of it. 10/10 would recommend that he be the dendo shunin forever.)

Luckily, in our efforts to strengthen the YSA this week we were actually able to find a really awesome new investigator, Andrew. He has a ton of interest in the Plan of Salvation and Miyazaki Kyoudai was super helpful when we found him. He absolutely loved the Book of Mormon challenge and we're really excited to start teaching him because he's youth and Matsuyama desperately needs the influence of strong youth.

Also this week we got to work in a vegetable farm and pick beans for this cute old couple who lives two seconds away from the church! It was so fun! There were cute frogs in the plants and we felt like we were in My Neighbor Totoro. We had barbecue with them too and it was Delicious(TM). 

We also had an onigiri party with a potential investigator who's the friend of a couple of the YSA. (@mom you need sticky rice and a rice cooker because onigiris are the actual easiest thing to make for lunches ever you just throw whatever you want inside (like tuna or chicken or whatever you want really) or just do salt and its the Best.) she's really cute and super ready. She just needs to be invited by her friends to start taking the lessons and she'll be golden! 

But yeah! That's about all of the most important things that happened this week. We'll get back to you next week as things progress! 😁

9.) a parakeet sat on my head in the lesson with the less-active

10.) Daisuke 兄弟 looks like Snape but is actually a cinnamon roll. You can tell because he's holding the bird that sat on my head like a pro. This photo is a good representation of the aesthetic of this transfer

11.) indo curry!!

12.) I made bookmarks for Matsuyama Dendo the Anime. It's me, Bagoyo Shimai, Loving Shimai, Daisuke Kyoudai, and the four of us. We all have one. It's like a friendship bracelet.
