HEY EVERYONE!


Hey Everyone,

How are you? Well Things are good in Ukraine, The work is Going slow. Well I'm glad you had a fun time at Campout, even though it rained. Sorry my email last week was a little short, I didn't have as much time as I thought. Well I've got to say i've missed the Davis family campout but what I'm doing is Important. I think I know the family that adopted the little girl that speaks only russian, we might of seen them at church a couple of weeks ago. well this week was great, we taught a couple of lessons and some INvestigators are coming along ok. I'm really excited for this one family, right now they are praying about baptisim. I hope and pray they make the right decision. Some missions like the congo and south american countries baptize many every week, and here they sometimes baptize one maybe two a month. The gospel is true everywhere and the lord loves all his children no matter how ready they might be. The Branches here first must strenghten in the preisthood then we can explode with baptisims. It will happen when the temple opens, it will bring in blessings never before known to Ukraine and the surrounding areas. The language is coming along slowly and I'm slowly getting better, I count on the lords help everyday to make up for my weaknesses. Well send those pictures with details and whatever written on the back so I know what is going on, Rice and noodle mix, is good. Just suprise me. :) I love you all and appreiciate your emails. This is transfer week so it's gonoing to be pretty crazy the knew missonaries are coming in, I'm really excited. They are really cool guys. and I know their trainers, they are going to learn alot and have alot of fun. I love Ukraine the People are great, the food, the culture, the next step for these great people is to except the gospel of jesus christ. Send all my Love to those who ask about about me and tell them to just pray for hearts to be softened and the work to go forth

With Honor,

Elder Davis

A LETTER FINALLY

Everyone,
Well this week for me was kinda exciting, well the later half. My companion's Birthday was the 14th and he really didn't want to celebrate it or get any presents but I conspired to get him a present!! The week before he lost his backpack on a tram so we bought him a man purse( those are popular here). He was resistant at first but he liked it!! This week we had a couple of new investigators. Things are moving slow in Ukraine right now but they are starting to pick up. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is really a stone rolling forward. Well the car seems really neat!! I'm glad you could talk him down, I always knew we had some jew in us. hahaha Well I'm waiting for those pictures :) It was great talking to you guys last week, I'm glad your doing well, keep busy and keep choosing the right. the only way to find true happiness in this life is to follow the comandments of god(mosiah 2:41) It is not because the Comandment brings us happiness, it's because as we follow the commandments we grow closer to Christ. When we choose to ignore the counsel of the prophets and not live the way we should we deny ourselves the spiritual growth and happiness that brings us the greatest blessings. (Alma 25)
The work is going well Know I love you.
