President came on Friday and leaves tonight. He came with a couple from Moscow and a few of the humanitarian representatives around the mission. The purpose of his visit was to set apart the Severrookins (a senior couple from Sakhalin) for their full time missionary service. We will be blessed to have them in our district for 2 months before they start to travel around the mission. President was pretty busy so we didn't see him a ton but we had breakfast with him today and got to talk about the branch and what is about to go on in the future. He is a smart man, it is always good to talk to him!
We had some fun service:
-A
sister in our branch asked us to put doors back on her dresser that she
took off so that she could wall paper her house. We had marginal
success at first, actually no success because it was impossible to line
everything up but right when we started to get things going her son came
home and and convinced her to just put them underneath his bed. I was
also confused.
- We went to see our friend Max at his warehouse and he let us use his welder! Not really service but oh well.
-Also
not service but I like how these points look. We played Frisbee
outside with a Frisbee that a member purchased in the Netherlands for us
(it lights up so we could play in the dark) and after maybe 45 minutes
in the cold it broke :(
We had good lessons
with investigators and are expecting a lot of success in the future! Me
and Elder Lawrence feel good about he future.
Love you
Elder Wilding
PS:
We climbed "лягушка" which means frog. Pretty easy hike met by a high
incline at the end, apparently it is magical. We slide down on the way
back and I felt like Indiana Jones when he jumped out of the airplane,
it was so steep!
