USSR COIN
Hello family and friends,
We met with a very strong member family on Monday for family home evening. We gave a quick lesson on prayer. They shared really cool stories. After that we talked and had a good time. Drank some tea and had some tea treats. Then we played UNO which is always a blast. Russian UNO is a different game. Its crazy.
After a lesson it was late, like 9:00ish, and we decided to call a taxi so we could get home on time. I called shotgun. I started talking with the taxi driver and we couldn't understand this guy because he was speaking so fast. He does know like 20 words in English so he tried to help us out. He gave up on that but seemed like he could understand us a little. Elder Kennedy from the backseat says tell him the first vision. So I told him the first vision in English. He then said "what state are you from?" I said Utah and he says I knew you were not from California because I know a Californian accent. HAHA OK-but i kind of am from Cali and was born there. I don't know why but he really liked me. We got to our apartment and he said "Wait, I have a present for you." He then pulls out a CCCP (USSR) Coin and gave it to me. He says its very expensive. He told me not to lose it and to not forget him.
