Week 2

Hello people!

This week I talked to a lot of people on the street! Well, Elder Ditty talked to a lot of people, and I stood close by and interjected where I could in my basic Russian... It was still really cool though! We never did that kind of thing in my old companionship, nobody would ever actually stop to talk with us before!

Elder Ditty is awesome! I was concerned he'd be a weirdy, but then he turned out to be a super weirdy, which is a good thing because it means that hilarious things are bound ot happen at any moment!

In other news, I cooked so much food this week! So. Much. And I didn't have to clean any of it up, because my companion took care of it! I cook, he cleans it up, we eat, everything is delicious, we talk to people about the Gospel in the cold Ukrainian streets. It's awesome!

District meeting was fun this week! There's a rule that 2 Elders can't be with 2 Sisters in the same place unless it's a public place, or there's another person present. It also can't look like any kind of date. This is all great until you realize that our district is currently 2 Elders... and 2 Sisters... Which works if you have a member to be with you! But none of our members would be with us...

Long story short, Elder Ditty and I sat outside of the Branch building and had the Sisters sit inside, and then we planned for about an hour or so in that configuration. To make things better, a homeless man came up to us and asked us if we were having a church service. But he was drunk, and we didn't trust him, so we gave him a card and sent him on his way. I'll see if I can put up a picture of our strange, strange, strange district meeting. So strange.

Other than that, I don't think much else has happened. I had to give a 5 minute talk on Sunday about repentance! In Russian! That was fun!

This weeks goals:
