Hey everyone I would just like to start out by saying that we have been doing a really unhealthy amount of dabbing in the past week and it's been really ironically cringe-y. It's been good.
Being a trainer has been really fun and also hard because I don't know what I'm doing? but also I've been having a blast with my companions they're hilarious. 
I also thought my russian was okay until we had an investigator ask if we believe in exorcisms and the number 666 so it's been qutie an eventful week.
We had zone conference this week and as usual it was SO GOOD. I love zone conferences. We talked about scripture study and how important it is and man it honestly changes the entire day for me. I can literally feel the difference in my day when I have a good study and when I don't. 
Other than Zone Conference we just had some random stuff, we taught a bunch of lessons this week, also got bunged a lot. Pretty much the usual. Contacting here isn't the greatest so we're still trying to find out how to actually do it but the ward is great and we have a bunch of cool investigators. One's named Evgenii and he's the biggest stud ever, he's gotten shot while protesting a couple times and he's literally the most golden/cool guy ever so I'm so stoked to be teaching him.
Some recent converts came up to Kyiv from Moldova to go to the temple and I got to see them so that was cool.
This next week is going to be pretty sweet because we get to go to Lviv so we're stoked. 
I'm been loving it out here and the mission has been amazing. My companions are literally the greatest and life is just going great. 
Here's a great scripture for you all pls read D&C 58:3
Ye cannot behold with your natural eyes, for the present time, the design of   your God concerning those things which shall come hereafter, and the glory  which shall follow after much tribulation. 
THIS SCRIPTURE IS SO COOL IF YOU DIDNT READ IT GO BACK AND READ IT

GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOU BE PATIENT AND EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE

I love you all!

Hey everyone  Oh man it's been a fun week. Also we contacted pretty much all day every day but for some reason it was really fun? Also Elder Day got wrecked with a stomach bug and we've started to get colds but we've still been going out and getting work done.  We actually had people come to church this sunday! So that was sweet. Church is nice. I got to translate @ church and man my translating is so trash haha. It's really fun though. Something cool that happened is we prayed really hard to find a less-active member one day and we went out to some addresses to find them and on our way we stopped a guy and tried to talk to him and he was like "oh yeah i actually used to go to your church" and then we found out more and it turns out he was baptized a while ago and even had the priesthood at some point so that was so cool and we invited him to come back to church. So miracles do actually happen it was sweet. Now that summer is coming around everyone dec...

Well I now have officially less than a month left on a mission so that's weird. I would say I have a healthy amount of trunkiness. But you better believe that I'm still grinding every day.  It's been a hype week. I'll just get into the interesting things: -My companion had interviews this past week and while we were waiting at President's house Sister Kumferman pulls out ticket to ride and we had a good old bonding time. The Kumfermans are literally the best and I'm so sad that I didn't have an interview with him this time around. I love them so much. -That night was crazy and we ended up joining a Gypsy caravan. We were walking down a creepy alleyway and next thing we know we're surrounded by gypsies and they're speaking their weird gypsy tongue. We quickly escaped and went across some railroad tracks but there was a very long train on the tracks that was stopped and so we were like "dang" and so we climbed underneath the train to ge...

2 Countries 2 Missions 2 Mission Presidents 3 Areas 3 Languages 9 Companions Hundreds of lessons taught Hundreds of hours of contacting 2 Years As I'm writing this it still doesn't feel totally real and so it's a really strange feeling coming to the end. This is the last time I'll be sending an email as I'm going home next week.  My mission really has been the best 2 years. But it really wasn't anything that I had expected earlier. It has been the most difficult 2 years, the craziest 2 years, and the most peaceful 2 years of my life. I've learned so much and so much has changed in myself and others that it has completely flipped my life around. I thought I knew the blessings of the gospel before my mission but I feel like I've come to actually know it and I've come to actually see the change and the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ in people's lives.  I've seen and met and made friends with some of the strongest ...
