Well, that is if you all answered yes! >_< Anyways! Today I went to a place called Harajuku (原宿). This is the place that I feel most called to. We went to a famous Japanese park called Yoyogi Park (代々木) It was totally exciting to go today because, while we went yesterday as well, it was rainy so there were not many people.

Today it was full of people and walking around was so much more enjoyable! We saw many people, some of which are featured in the picture above^^. I was even able to use my limited Japanese to ask a lady what in the world they were doing! Hooray!

Some kids from another YWAM base are doing their DTS outreach here in Japan and are staying with us for the last couple weeks before they head back to their base in Australia. The two guys were able to play their guitars in the park and talk to some of the people through that. The rest of us mostly just walked around and took pictures and what not. Over all it was a really fun day at the park.

Later in the evening, however, we went to a special worship service at a church called Shibuya Harvest. On the wall was the Christian and Missionary "symbol" I guess you would call it, so that was fun! There were a couple guests at the service, some doing a tamborine dance and and Enka Trio. Enka is a traditional for of Japanese music, but most people (including most Japanese people even) do NOT like it. I, however, LOVE it (go figure). If you are interested at all in what Enka sounds like, follow this link:

Anyways, all that to say that it was a great service and the pastor (or speaker cause I am not entirely sure he is the pastor) was really good. The three singers were very talented and very into what they call "Gospel Enka" and that was awesome! All in all, today was a great day with a lot to share! >_<
