Hey everyone! In case you were wondering, Ukraine celebrates Christmas two times, once on the 25th of December and the next on the 6th of January. So it is still Christmas time over here. #powermove I hope you had a great week! We did too. I'm super bad at recapping, but here are all the highlights: - We had an epic ward Christmas party! We watched the Christ Child and played games and had a gift exchange. I would give it a solid 10/9 for sure. - I've eaten more food in this last week than I think I ever have on my mission (maybe in my life). Everyone just wants to give us stuff to eat, even when we aren't at their house. Sometimes we leave church with random treats in hand. Sometimes we leave with last minute lunch appointments. Overall, I'm not complaining. My love handles are coming in real nice. - Тетяна (Tetiana) came to church and she loved it! It was the first time she attended, and it was awesome to see her there! We are going to extend a baptismal invitatio...

Hello my wonderful friends and family, Today I saw the sun for the first time in three weeks. It was incredible. Needless to say, I will not need to take my Vitamin D pill today. I hope y'all had a wonderful week! It's been pretty crazy out here in Ukraine. I will send bullet points once again: - I went on an exchange where we had one Ukrainian, one Lithuanian, and one American. I was that American, in case you were wondering. - We found our friend Даша (Dasha). She wants to get baptized. Also she likes David Bowie. She's pretty cool. - I have now learned the difference between Australian and American football. They are, in fact, not the same game. - One of the members in our ward named брат Валерій (Brother Valeriy) brought us to his apartment so that we could Preach in the public kitchen. Then someone proceeded to Bible bash us. It was incredible and quite honestly iconic. - The new Spiderman came out. Haven't seen it yet, but I've heard it's good. That...

Hey everyone! I have officially taken more than 50 Uber rides while I've been in Ukraine. I am a gephardt approved Uber master. I hope y'all had a wonderful week! Mine was pretty stellar! I went to another country with my mission president, so that was sweet. We had a zone conference in Moldova (which is a part of our mission), so we drove down there in our mission president's car with him, his wife, and his son Nick. It was quite the ride. He's Australian, and when I asked him what was weird about Americans he said the words "sauce" and "horse" are supposed to rhyme in the English language. This man is just adding R's wherever he wants. Moldova was pretty cool too. Shout out to Kim who served there! The zone conference went well, and it was super fun to be with the other missionaries who I never get to see (because they literally live in another country). I also met Elder Jeffrey Olmo who rode on the CCHS mountain biking team the year I was a ...

34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. I love you. Jesus does too) Until next time, Старійшина Хорслі
