Well it's already P day! I guess you can expect this on Monday now, it is interesting, we'll see if I like it. In fact all missions in the entire world have P day on mondays. Some interesting things I have found out, Russians sell a Finnish Milk that tastes just like American milk, I am quite happy. Something also interesting, Russians have a belief that every single piece of bread that you throw away, is collected by the devil. When you die, if the bread collected weighs more then you, you go to endless fires of hell. Think of that the next time you see the heel of the bread and don't want to eat it. That's also means that Russians will not throw away bread even if it's been on the floor. There was one story about a girl, during the second world war, found a chunk of crusty moldy bread in the creavus of the sofa, and ate it right away, then started crying because she felt ashamed for not sharing it with her family.
I have taken a liking in Pate. The meat paste stuff, it is quite tasty. Yeah I know that is quite weird, but I love it. There's a lot of interesting foods I need to try. I will for sure tell you about them, when I do. Maybe send some home for christmas.
We had a split with the President and a member, (ilya) it was quite successful. I went with the President of the Branch and meet with a Mother of a mission from Pskov. She was drunk, but still felt the spirit. It was great. Afterwards, because she lives in the so called "boons" of pskov, we walked 5 kilometers back to the city in the middle of grazing grounds. I have lot of cool pictures from that walk, a lot of really good looking clouds. I learned while walking with the president that he was baptized a day after me. I was baptized March 4th, 2000 he was March 5th. He was baptized when he was 17, I 8. That was awesome to find out.
We had a meeting with a woman, who came to all our activites but was to afraid to meet with us. She felt the spirit, and committed to read the book of mormon. I hope something comes out of this one, actually I pray something will.
It sounds like everything is dandy at home, I hope everything is fine.
This is about it for this week.
