And frankly, considering that as far as I know, none of the newcomers practice with the Church of Jonova, I find them conducting the memorial services to be... co-opting.
It's not that I think every newcomer is a Buddhist, but I can at least speak on the experiences of a newcomer a little more. And it's my hope to connect with many others to represent many faiths.
Oh, I don't know anything about temples, though... Ah, donations! You said you needed money! That would be useful, right? This is such a good cause that I have to assist you in some way! How much money do you need?
[ He completely ignores the praise Tamaki showers him with - this isn't about that for him. ]
I was actually hoping you'd like to join the effort - you seem like you'd have a lot of good ideas for things like fund-raising, and you're good at getting the word out.
I want to get a few more people involved in the project before we start looking for permanent housing and estimating the monthly cost... but to start up I'm sure it will cost a few thousand dollars.
It's nice to speak with you again as well, Doumeki. Thank you for volunteering to help. From how you spoke of your temple, I think you'll be a good match.

By the way, ah, hm. What sort of temple was it?

I don't understand why we need any of that.
