Team Christ or Team Satan?

Konnichiwa minasan! 

So there were a bunch of fun things this week but I have like zero time gomen! 

Tuesday we went with Ooba Shimai to Kobe to see Bagoyo Shimai after the Trainer Trainee Training Meeting and it was so cool! See, she just HAPPENS to know Bagoyo Shimai's uncle from when he was a missionary in Japan, so we went and they shared photos for like twenty minutes it was really cool. 

Also that day at Eikaiwa we played a fun pictionary game and when we separated into teams, we let the students pick their team names, and they decided to be Team Christ and Team Satan and thus we see that the latter days are nigh and the epic battle has begun. Plot twist: team Satan won. It was hilarious. 

Wednesday we had an appointment where we intended to make tacos with Matsumoto-san. What were weren't prepared for was four of her friends also showing up to make it with us and then also learning to play the Japanese koto together. There were many shenanigans. We talked about family history quite a bit and discovered that my sense of humor is the same as a Japanese obaa-chan. Also I'm pretty good at the koto. The old ladies were very impressed✌️✌️✌️ 

Thursday and Friday we had an exchange with the Akashi shimaitachi and it was way fun. I got to koukan with the bean-chan and we dendoed a group of teenage boys who thought they were very cool. It was funny. They tried to impress us by saying "hello" and "My friend has many many girls" but then we spoke to them in Japanese and they got the funniest deer in the headlights look and it made me laugh. Lol fifteen year olds. 

As for investigators, we taught both Kunitsu-san and Nakamura san. Kunitsu San has the problem of being a total Hufflepuff and cares more about her friendships at her current church than finding out the truth, so our plan is to make lots of activities to invite her to so she can make Friends(TM) and then she'll be more willing to come to church. 

We shoukaied the book of mormon to Nakamura-San and he said he'd read it except the print is too small. But he said he'd listen to it on audiobook so now we're on an epic hunt for a CD because he doesn't have a smartphone and this cannot download gospel library. Annoying. But soon. Soon we will acquire the audiobook! 

愛しています! (*^^*)💕

Sherwood Chourou - Week 38 in Japan

Konnichiwa! We are back to the slowish days once more. We've been dendoing and teaching plenty, but nothing outstanding has arisen ...
