Sorry for my laziness in writting my weekly email.
Guess where I am though....... SOCHI!
K, I will start from the beginning.
Monday I had the craziest experience. I started a conversation with a woman on transport like always and she was really nice till she found out that I am a Mormon missionary. So she was on a mission to convince me that I had choosen the wrong choice. She passionatly describing to me how there was only one place for me after this life and that God does not answer our prayers. I just testified to her about how He does. He knows me. And then just smilied. "Are you understanding me?" Well yes I understood it all. I am thankful for my knowledge of how God does answer praers though. Anything she said to me couldnt change what I know. THat was the first time that someone really wanted to change what I konw. But I am thankful for the experience. Because the spirit testified to me the whole time that what I am saying is true. God know me. He knows all His children and will answer prayers.
The rest of this week has been very unusual. We moved apartments because we have a new senior couple in Kdar annnnnnnd Im in Sochi. Just for a week though. But man.... Sochi is so beautiful!! Palm trees next to pine trees and vines and the sun and the sea. I feel like I went from mesa to the pheonix zoo where everything is green. It is awesome though. The branch here is way smaller but they are great. I am working with Sister Cook here. She is the funniest woman alive and I have laughed more this past few days then I have the whole last trasfer. I have loved working with her here. MY comp, sister bulatova, is working with another Russian in Kdar. Its been really cool to be here. I miss Kdar and the people that we were working with there but I know that Sister Radzhavaba is taking care of them. I will return to Kdar on Wed and then tansfers. I wish I could send pictures but my card hasnt been working soooo...
Our investigators in Kdar are doing goo. Katya and Anya both have dates for the April 4th right now because we didnt feel lke Katya was prepared enough and it has been hard to met with Anya. We have few other investigators. The work is starting to speed up in Kdar. Its beena great blessing to serve a mission here. I love it!!
The Church is true and the Atonement works.
