Bukkō-ji Goshuin

Shot in the dark here but if anyone in Japan in or around Kyoto would be willing to help me out, I'd appreciate it a lot. I spent a semester abroad in Japan and decided to visit some shrines and temples in Kyoto to collect goshuin seals a couple days before I had to fly back. One of the temples I visited, Bukko-ji, was closed by the time I got there around 4:00pm, so I didn't get to get the goshuin seal. I was wondering if anyone would be able to get it on a piece of paper and ship it to me in the US. I would pay for everything. I understand this is a lot to ask but I would appreciate it a lot.

Is there a specific shrine that one can go to and buy a specific omamori?

Hi, newbie here. I heard that every shrine has a deity or kami sama and some of them have specific duties/powers. I was wondering if there is a specific shrine in Japan where one can buy the best omamori for protection from evil spirits, bad luck and curses? I know that Shōki sama is the demon queller, does he have a shrine somewhere around Japan?

Thank you for the answers! 💕
