Why hello there neighbor. It's just another beautiful day in my neighborhood and I hope that this email reaches you in another beautiful day in your neighborhood. For how horrible winter is in Russia, spring sure does make up for it. The trees are blooming and the flowers are so wonderful. The weather has just been so splendous. And good weather means that more people are out on the streets. So how about I tell about one of the amazing people we met this week. So it all started when we were supposed to do Yoga, which we do every tuesday night, and apparently everybody but us knew that is was cancelled because no one else showed up. So instead of doing Yoga we contacted. We were walking down the street and we met this lady name ulga. She was so nice and she had sincere quetions about our church. She was with her young daughter and they were about to feed the pigeons, something just about every Russian loves doing I think they equate it to us feeding the ducks, anyways so she said to wait a minute so that she could go grab some grain stuff for her daughter to feed the birds.So we waited and when she came out of the store we continued to teach her. She's a wonderful mom and she wants her daughter to grow up with religion and values. At the end of our talking she asked us for our number first and we got her number too. She wasn't able to meet last week because she already had plans, including her daughters very first dance concert :), and so we are hoping and praying that things will work out for us to meet with her and her family this week. Well, there's your cool missionary story from me for the week. My companion got sick, so we spent the past two days inside doing nothing that interesting, so that's all. I love you all and I hope that you are doing marvelous. I just want you to know that the church is true, and if you don't know it... well pray and find out, and once you get your answer that it is true, then you'll understand why I love being a missionary so much!
