I have no idea what is going to happen to me. But you know what? I love it.

I some how ended up in business class for my flight because of my long family friend Masumi works for Northwest! What the funny thing was, was that I left on Thursday, but didnt quite get to Japan until Saturday. The plane was flying over Alaska, and they decided to turn BACK to Minnesota. So I slept at home Thursday night... It was apparently a minor problem, but Japan wouldnt let us land because planes land every 3 to 5 minutes. I guess one of the hydro-something was broken, so we would be able to land, but would have to be dragged to the gate. SO that is why I did not quite get to Japan on time. One day delayed. But hey, I had no complaint with my nice seating arrangement. And my mom was with me. I watched Juno the first flight. Then Devil Wears Prada the next day.

None the less, here I am in Tokyo. And safe. hehe.

I got an opportunity to be involved with the preparation for the Hillsong Conference, so that was awesome!

The conference...
AMAZING! I was part of TEAM EMI SHIRASAYA along with Izumi and Yumi. haha. We were the right hand women of the event coordinator. That was a cool opportunity! I didnt realize how tall Joel Houston (from Hillsong United) was and he is a TALKER. Story after story after story. haha. The Watoto kids were SOO CUTE. There was a little kid named Junior who ran and gave me a hug before they left. He was telling me stories while I was hanging out with the Watoto kids =) I got to talk to Andrew Hoyes and told him a little bit of my vision, and he encouraged me a lot!! I was always sweaty by the end of the day... but being backstage and seeing everything behind the scenes was amazing!

Anyway, through the conference, God really confirmed my calling. I got to see part of my vision unfold before my eyes and I cried. haha. There were a bunch of people who came to the Lord in those 3 days, it was awesome! I love what God is doing here SOO MUCH!

Less than a month before Hong Kong!!!!

Hi! I found your blog through Paul Nethercott and really like it. One question: other than your (excellent) music, can you point me to some other Japanese worship artists? I'm looking for more current stuff, and so far all I've found are early Hillsongs-type stuff (think 'Shout To The Lord' in Japanese...been there, done that! ;)). Some ideas would be MUCH appreciated, as I'm learning Japanese right now and could use some Christian music. Thanks in advance!
