HEY EVERYONE

Hey Everyone,
I love all your letters, \the really lift me up and give me hope. Ukraine Is amazing, and what is more Amazing is my Companion, Elder Shurtz. He's From Raymond, Alberta Canada, He speaks the language well and really is just a beautiful Missionary. He is really is a really great guy and we get along really well. We are serving in the Area called. . . . ."Red Rock" I love it!!! It\s one of the biggest area's in the mission if not the biggest. We are the missionaries In the Dnepropetrovsk Central Branch!!! The one the Lindsey's are from!! It really is neat!!The plane ride was long long and greusome, and hillarious. The flight from D.C. to austria I had a screaming Baby behind me the entire time, me and my compaion couldn't sleep at all, we'll i could and I did a little bit but my companion elder mcclure couldn't. Well we finnally got to Ukraine and we immediately went contacting, It was awesome. No matter the lanuage I'm not afraid to talk to people. That night night we had a welcome party forthe new missionaries put on by the center branch. It was fun. Well I finnally the next day found out my area and my companion, We got to work!!! We are white-washing this area, If you don't know what that means, It's when knew missionaries who have no experience with a certain area, go and start fresh. It's gonna be a challenge but I know we can do it. My companion is the district leader over our area and Center, Which is the Office elders and Assistants to the presidents area, so we also cover that as well , as needed. I'm loving my mission, I love the people, the are really nice, well some are. .. but I want all to feel the joy and love of god throught the gospel of Jesus Christ. That is the one sure thing we all have in this life, and after. It is the only thing that matters. So anyone who have the oppurtunity to read this, take a look at your life. Are your Priorities in the right Order?. .Family night?. . Scripture Study?. . .Prayer?. . .Do not wait!!! Why Wait? You only deny yourself the blessings god wants so bad to give you. It'll take sacrfice and dilligence, thats hard, but the discision is easy, Decide!, and follow through and watch the blessings poor in, It all starts with a desire and then you can have that perfect knowledge that Jesus Christ is our savoir and that this is his one true gospel and all of this is worth it!!!! I hope to get one baptisim this Transfer, and I have faith that it will Happen. I will Work hard,(walk slow) Drink lots of water, And listen to the Holy ghost and the lord will lead me to the elect. Little by little my language will come, I expect alot from myself, but I have been blessed with an increase of patience, while I've been on my mission. It'll come. :) I've Been tracting and contacting, and had a lesson on the Metro (subway). My trainer is really awesome, I'm learning alot from him and continue everdyay. I Love to hear news from home, It's great!!!! keep sending it!! I love you all and Jesus Christ"s Gospel is our anchor in this crazy world!!!
