Today we had a flat-out war


1/7 木 [Just a reminder to all readers who might not know Sydney well, she has a very sarcastic, though never mean, dry sense of humor. So if you read something and think she might be joking, she probably is. :) ]

Today we had a flat-out war with T-shimai, a beloved member, (she joined us in another person’s lesson) over whether or not she wanted to be resurrected. She was like "Mou...Just dying is enough for me. Life is tiring."

Oi.

So we had this war with her in front of our investigator over whether or not it would be better to go to the Celestial Kingdom with a body (for those of you who aren’t familiar with this wording, translate to “Heaven”,) or stay as a spirit in Paradise (translate to “purgatory”ish). At the end, I was like, "ANYWAYS
(after we had finally managed to get T-shimai to be like, "Fine! I'll go to the celestial kingdom!"), resurrection is a present from God
and--"

T-shimai: Puresento no nara, kaeshite mo ii no?
Me: NO YOU CAN'T RETURN IT. (Not really. But in my heart, sou iimashita. (that is what I said.))

Then we ate the MOST DELICIOUS sweet and sour pork. After we were like, "Hey, we need to get going at four to get to another appointment," the four cute little old ladies cranked into high gear. It was really impressive.

We also ended up getting lost and missing the appointment, but we met an English guy instead and went with the chouroutachi to visit a girl we wanted to share a message with.
After we got the number,

Me: *putting it in* “So... S-chan, right?”
Her: “H.”

Turns out there were 2 girls. Awkward.

Me: “Oh, okay, thanks” :D *to my companion* “She's not the droid we are
looking for.”

But that's about it. Hopefully we'll hear from her.

Also taught a really good lesson to Y-shimai. She might be baptized before June after all. Goodnight.
