I'm Alive!!!

Hello!

This week has been a little long and a little rough!  We have spent a lot of time contacting ( talking to people on the street all day about the gospel ).  Did I mention I can't speak Russian..?  But I was able to meet one girl who spoke English and we got her number and she seemed really excited!!  It was such a blessing. 

As many of you knew before, I'm not a cook.  At all.  So you should all be very proud that I cooked chicken and potatoes this week and did not get food poisoning.  What can I say; I'm a changed woman.  Although, Yogurtland might have some competition because the ice cream here is pretty delicious!

Today I was studying Agency.  If you take a moment to reflect on your life, it’s amazing to see the blessings we all have.  God created us, and then He gave us scriptures, prophets, the gospel, all of the commandments so that we can know exactly how to return to Him.  Then He STILL lets us choose whether we will follow Him or not.  I've learned no one can or will make you have a relationship with God.  This is something you have to work on and develop yourself and it takes a lot of work.  But it brings more blessings and happiness than anything else ever could.

I love you all!
