Moving Is Hard

Hey friends! 


A lot has happened... and not a lot of it was really missionary related sadly... being a missionary in Russia is weird. Anyways, here are the three big things.


First, I went to Seoul! It was a legitimate magical fairyland. I got to attend the temple there, which was like the best thing ever. I really took for granted how close we live to temples in America, even though my family lives kinda far from the one in Detroit. The people in the branch here have to plan to go to the temple in a completely different COUNTRY! But Korea was way awesome, and we just got to walk around and eat Korean food and even talk to some people that spoke English. It was weird that we could talk to them about church and God because it's not against the law there.


Another huge thing is that we moved... and we're still in the middle of that whole process. Ugh. We moved yesterday. It was awful. But we're ok! We haven't been able to meet with many people this week because we've just been packing, cleaning, and moving, but it's almost over and we can continue to do work. I'm stressed, but I'm ok! Mom, Dad, I don't know how in the world you moved all of those times because this has been absolutely crazy.


I have a new companion! Her name is Sister Brockbank, she's from Utah, and she's way cool. We've been freaking out about moving together:) She's my trainer, but I'm kinda training her on the city and the people here and stuff because she's never served here. It's a weird dynamic, but I'm way excited to be her companion!


Anyways, I'm sorry this weeks email is so short. The Russian is coming, I love it here, and I hope you are all happy and doing well! 


I love you all!

P.S. I did a stupid thing and left my camera at home, so I will send pictures next week... sorry I'm the worst:)
