Making my way downtown

Man. This week just FLEW by! Seriously it's crazy. 
What happened...? Good question. Lots of good things! Met some cool people! 

We had a great lesson with our friend Galina. She asked great questions and she even basically asked if people could be baptized and join our church! Of course Galina XD 

We met with this cute babushka, she's a member but can't make it to church. She was so nice but it was so sad because she cried a little when we left:( broke my heart, but we told her not to worry; we'll definitely be back next week!

Oh ya and we might have been scammed by a gypsy! But it's all good, don't y'all worry! Live and learn;)

We had a melon party after church yesterday! Because we're in two branches sometimes we don't stay all three hours for our second branch but yesterday we did, we were there from 9 to 5 .. so we were kind of starving lol but it's ok because we filled ourselves so much melon after:))

So much love,

"making my way down town" lol we've been singing that all week


first time at KFC in Ukraine!








Hello Fam,
Sorry if I'm boring this week, not much new to say.. it was a good week though!

Just super tiring and hard to work in this heat. Man. Like it just drains you, SO HOT. 

We did get a watermelon though! Probably the best one, I've ever had! And we got Sunflowers:) they're so pretty! 

We had a couple really good lessons though. One with Alyona and her Grandma. She left for youth conference in L'viv this week for all the youth in Ukraine, which will be aweosme I'm sure. Unfortuanately we found out that her dad won't let get baptized right now:( BUT she's going to still try to do all she can for the next couple of months ( read scriptures, pray etc, and then her dad might ) It made our hearts break when she said, that the fasting we did didn't work. We made sure she understood though, and I hope you all do too that it definitely did! Prayer and fasting are powerful and Heavenly Father ALWAYS hears them. He loves us and He will always answer our prayers but sometimes they're just not how or when we want, it's in His timing, and infinite wisdom. She's amazing and I think she understands now, and has so much faith, and still pressing forward.

While we were at her house I tried ostrich jerky! So that was cool. It's from Africa, where her aunt lives.

We also stayed with a couple of girls from a different town who came on their way to conference. And I drew the Plan of Salvation on the side walk:)

Lots of Love,
