This week was nice. It rained a bit so it softened the snow then it was sunny so basically all the snow has melted there is a slight dilemma..Ukraine doesn't really have drains so there is just water and mud everywhere haha they used sand and dirt to help make the snow not so slippery so that made more mud haha We met a new investigator Mohammad who is going to school here he is Muslim and was pretty cool, he seemed really interested so hopefully he wants to meet again this week. Some good news we put John on date, he is a brotha and seems pretty cool! his date is set for March 8, but that is womens day so hopefully we can move it up a week! His friend Paul was there and he seems really cool, he has a Christian background and really liked the first lesson. He even said the closing prayer! ha so that was pretty cool. we have high hopes for paul. We had youth night this week, like we usually do but the thing is we dont really have youth so I guess the old people who think they are the youth came, but it was good because they are all way funny. We played the game where you have to say something to your neighbor without showing your teeth and I started laughing way hard and it was just funny, sister Lubov was there and she is too funny.
me and sister Lubov (which means love in Russian by the way) good times!
Yesterday we gave the sacrament to Olea and Nadia and they are doing better, but their parents havent changed their minds, it is good to practice my russian with them they are patient and know missionaries struggle with the language at the beginning haha Then we met the Garbankos, another cool family in the branch, this is the family that the missionary baptized the dad then married his daughter ha, then they took us over to their other daughters house who still lives here and gave her and here daughter the sacrament because she is on bed-rest because she is pregnant. her daughter is so cute and funny she reminds me of all of my nieces and nephews. We also gave her a blessing and that was pretty cool too. I didnt do it but her dad and Elder Newey did and I just stood in on it, so it was a neat experience. We also helped sister Lubov this week haul a washing machine across town ha we picked it up from a member and less active, the daughter is less active because she got sick like 20 years ago and she went to the hospital and they gave her a buunch of shots, then her brain got messed up, anyway ha we got the washer and thankfully it wasnt too big and we but it on the tolley bus which was packed because people were coming home from work haha and sister Lubov was trying to play the game with us that we played at youth night hahaha but then we went to the other end of the bus so then she stopped haha she is awesome. Every time I show my picture book everyone comments on our fam and how big and good looking we are haha so thanks mom and dad! I am glad to be in the family that I am in. The other night we also made some chicken noodle soup which was very tasty so yes I am cooking and we aren't starving ha
