Харковь!!! (Kharkov!!)

Hey!!

This was a really fun week!! It started with making homemade shwarma on Canadian Thanksgiving (maybe not better than a turkey dinner but still soo good!) and then ended with an awesome trip to Kharkov!!

This was Elder Shweighart's last week of the mission this week so we did a lot of fun things with the Elders and were invited to a couple of members houses with them. It's really sad to see him go, he's probably the most humble and hard working missionary ever! It's been a fun transfer with this district and we got transfers this week and me and Sis Busath are staying together! :) Also we're going to have a "son" haha sorry more mission lingo aka Elder Hilobok is training an Elder and he's from New Zealand! we're excited. We're also getting SO many new missionaries in our mission these next couple transfers! it's crazy! but we're so happy to get more missionaries.

Saturday we accepted an invitation from one of our friends to go to one of her church services. We decided it could be cool to check it out and meet her friends. We were a little worried because we heard some weird things about this particular church, but it ended up being fairly normal.. although we have this one song stuck in our head now lol they were really nice though.

On Sunday we went to sacrament meeting in center - and I found out that the wife of a member who I almost taught got baptized the day before! It was so amazing to hear and see her be confirmed a member. Then all of us, like 20 or so missionaries, got in a bus and drove to Kharkov! It was so fun to see all these missionaries I haven't seen in forever. Kharikov looks super pretty and European downtown, it was cool to be there even for a just a bit. Elder Kearon of the Presidency of the Seventy and Elder Golden and his wife of the Seventy had a conference with all of the missionaries in the mission and it was SO good! Learned a lot but mainly I loved that I could feel the Spirit SO strong the entire time! Sis Sullivan asked Sis Busath and I to sing the same song we sang at zone conference at the beginning..and apparently they all cried soo mission accomplished ahaha just kidding. But yeah that day went by way too fast but it was great!

Sorry, I actually took some pics this week but we had to go to a Internet cafe today so they tell me I shouldn't put my camera in the computer in case I get a virus..

With love,
