And this is all the missionaries at zone conference.
Okay, fisrt things first, I have to give you an update on our FAMILY!!! First of all, their last name is Zolato, which means GOLEN in Russian, so that's pretty cool, and we had a lesson with them last night and Alexander prayed for the first time! It almost made me cry. They are so amazing! I wish I could just take them home with me! We also challenged them to be baptized after they come to know that this church is true and they said they would and they were actually very interested in getting baptized they asked us how we baptize in our church and what they would have to do. They also said that they wanted to know that this was the right desicion for them before they made it. We told them that it is a big decision and they should pray about it and seek to receive an answer that this is the only true church, and that it was restored through a prophet.I know that they will get an answer that it is true and that they will be baptized after they get that answer. I LOVE the power of prayer and I am so grateful that we can tell people that if they really want to know if this church is true all they have to do is pray and Heavenly Father will tell them! It's the best promise ever and I am so grateful for it because I'm not a very good convincer. I can bear testimony that I know it's true all day, but without prayer, they'll never know. Anyways, that's the first thing that I just had to tell you. So in other news... A bird pooped on my leg this week when we were out contacting. It wasn't very pleasant, but lucky for my Sister Tunney had some wetwipes in her purse, so I just used one of those and wiped it right off. Also we almost died this week because it was sooooooo hot! The hottest I saw a thermometer was 55 Celcius! I have no idea how much that is in Ferenhiet, but near death temperature probably. I could feel my blood starting to boil inside my body! Okay, that was an exaggeration, but it was pretty miserable to sit in these small marshootkas, which are basically like vans, and drive with no a/c to all of our destinations. But good thing I have a really amazing companion and we were able to make the best of it. We laughed and laughed some more. OKAY! other big news that I completely forgot about!!! Transfers are tomorrow and I am getting a new companion! Her name is Sister Undazoriva and she is form Estonia, Russian is her native language, but she speaks almost fluent english. We were together in the mtc and we flew here together and I am pretty stoked to be serving with her! Well, that's about it for today. Love you all Best of luck with your lives!
