MMMM HMMM it was a great week. I had the opportunity to go on two splits which are always a blast. And they kinda spice things up a bit and your with a new personality for the day. It was fun because I got to spend one of the splits in a different area!! It felt good haha just because I've been in Sokolinki for 5 months.. but yeah:)
This week I had the opportunity to meet with an investigator that I taught in Zgrad. I guess she works right by the branch building and so she was totally down to meet with us. I think she might even move into our area which will be way cool!! It's so nuts because she was the very first person I taught here in Russia.. And I just remember every lesson with her I could not understand.. or even talk!! I remember there were couple times where I started crying because I just wanted to understand her so bad.. and NOW I CAN UNDERSTAND HER!! and Speak to her!!!!! SO crazy... Made me realize how far I've actually come.. And for the longest time I didn't really feel like I had progressed that much because russian is freaking hard!! But that was a cool eye opener to see that I really have grown a little:)
I had the opportunity to speak in church this week.. Yay haha Can I just tell you how terrifying it is to give a talk in Russian.. Mind you President was there?? haha out of all the sundays he decides to come on the sunday I speak? Yeah god wanted to make it more stressful. But it was all good because he doesn't know Russian;) haha I think it went good?? I honestly don't remember. It was cool though because the whole week I was just praying that everyone would feel the spirit. I could careless if they understood me, just as long as they could feel the spirit. and My district leader, after my talk, came over to me and said The spirit was SO strong holy cow!! And even the presidents wife said that to me!! So that made me really happy that even though I can't speak Russian very well. I can speak with the spirit and that's all that matters:)
Well I hate to break it to you but Russians don't celebrate Halloween.. So while everyone in america is trick or treating and partying I will be bored not being able to see any costumes or give out candy.. Who knows maybe me and my companion will think of something fun to do;) anyways I'm off to a jewish museum.. Should be fun:) BYE!!!
Hey mums:):)
Well I have some good news and bad news.. The good new is I got your package!! The bad new is for some reason the sim card doesn't work!!!!! I was freaking out!!!!!!! So today I'm going to go to the Blackwells and see if I can get it to pull of on there computer.. ah it broke my heart. I was like God no!!! Don't punish me!!! haha so will see. Like it says the files are there it just won't show them.. no idea why?? But yeah so I'll let you know how that works out:) How was your week though!! Those pictures of chan were way cool!!! Haha Ah I miss dances.. I miss doing Halloween makeup for everyone. Russian People don't really celebrate Halloween.. So I'm pretty bummed.. so me and my companion will just have to party it up;) haha I loved your letter last week. I'm glad your enjoying your calling and your focusing on it more:) haha I bet your an amazing teacher:) As for me my week was good!! Worked with a lot of inactives. but we couldn't meet with any of our investigators.. Except!!! Refina, do you remember her from Zgrad?? Anyways we met with her and did a lesson. It was so cool because now she works in Moscow every day right by the church. So maybe we get to start teaching her. We asked her if she believes everything is true and she said yes, but shes just scared to get baptized.. I don't know why.. so maybe we can help her:) Also I went on a split with Pete Larkin's niece? anyways we had a lot of fun!! She's way cool!! My talk on Sunday went good haha to be honest I don't really remember it.. but That means the spirit took over and yeah:) Haha You'll have to let me know when president sends you a letter about my date. I'll have to see if he said anything back to me today because I told him the situation with chan and what not so will see?? anywho:) Thanks again for your package!! pray that it works:) I love you though!! have a great week k:):)
