But we know from the dedicatory prayer for missionary work in Ukraine, that temples will cover the land no matter what the land is called.
Some other sad news, our investigator Lee got off date. He told us that he talked to his family about joining the church and they said that he was turning his back on them and his Native American ancestry. It's like I wish your family knew that this Book is about your ancestors!! But we helped him understand that he needs to read the Book of Mormon and get a solid testimony then he will know that he can trust in the Lord and be an example and missionary for his family.
When we went to. Hillside manor then this other lady, Marie, (the first time she said she was 98 then she said she was 92 but she is nice and still walking around) came to our lesson with Mike and Lee, Tamie wasn't there but we were able to meet with her yesterday so it was good. We had sacrament there yesterday and some other people heard we were doing that they are like oh where is it? So a few other people who aren't members showed up to sacrament it was cool! Hillside is poppin haha
We found a ton of new people this week it was sweet.
We finally met a Russian referral that we got from our Stake President, we had been trying and trying to meet with her and we finally talked to her and she said she would take a Book of Mormon and read and pray about it.
Then we found another girl who has friends who are members and on missions but hasn't been to church or met with the missionaries, she said she doesn't know if she can make it to the meeting we scheduled but hopefully it works out.
Then last week we talked to this guy, Eric, who gave us some water and said we could come back so we did and talked about the Book of Mormon he said he had a dream missionaries came to his house. He had some concerns about more scripture but he is solid so hopefully we can teach his whole family, it's exciting how awesome he is.
Our Russian speaking investigator, Stephan, for some reason has been super hard to understand lately, it's frustrating, I just need to keep sharing things that will help him feel the Spirit, but he said he left his house then felt like he should go back home and after he got home we pulled up. So it was really cool. We were able to have the Spirit there as we read from the Book of Mormon and talked about service in King Benjamin's address and watched the video of the boys who put their silver dollar into the guys boots instead of hiding them, by President Hinckley.

So something else cool happened, this lady from North Dakota moved here and she wanted to repay the missionaries since the ones there helped her move, so she referred herself. Long story short she said she wasn't interested in hearing the lessons but she wanted to feed us, so she did and we shared the Restoration and her and her daughters said they would read and pray about the Book of Mormon as well. So it was awesome.
We had zone conference this week and it was really good. We talked about how we, as well as our investigators need to always have the end goal in mind..Eternal Families. That is, or ought to be, our end goal, eternal life with our families. How great of a blessing is that, that through the restored gospel of Jesus Christ our families can be together FOREVER! It's awesome. I'm grateful for this knowledge.
On that note we went to Cafe rio this week, and I had a pork burrito, with BEANS! Ha it was alright, I'm know you're proud of me Mel ;) haha
Love you all hope you have a good week!
Love
