Just Get Wet To Say I Took A Shower

09/07/2009

Hey,
First off thanks for doing all that stuff to get the scriptures here. I hope they make it. But Ben's Baptism might get pushed back a week just things came up so yea it might be next week but who knows. But thanks for doing that. He will really like them. He is the coolest person ever. Haha seriously he is the definition of elect. Well him and this other guy from camorroon named Valaree. Valaree is also on date for baptism for the 26 of sept. He loves the Book of Mormon and has been looking for new scripture his whole life so he already has a testimony of it. Yesterday he brought 3 friends with him to the lesson and so we talked about the Book of Mormon. All of the are from Africa and one of them seriously looked like he was going to kill me. Haha seriously i bet he is nice inside but his face looked angry and mean. But so things are going great here. Haha i havent done much with them except be in the right place. We found Valaree through Magic who is also awesome. We also have some good Ukrainian investigators but they arent as elect you could say. Haha but they are still awesome. WE havent played much soccer because school started again and people dont have time anymore. My companion is doing good. He is really smart and uses "big" words. Next year though i am down with flying back here. How much does it cost to fly to kiev?It really is nice. I dont know about my next move though. I think i am going to go to Dnepr though. That sucks about the horse dying though. Haha kind of funny at the same time though. That is cool though that everyone is going to the lake. Haha that seriously is one of the first things i am doing when i get back. Also Dad you need to buy a new wakeboarding boat. :) But yea showering in cold water is not fun. I just get wet to say i took a shower. Hopefully warm water comes back soon though. Is Tyson still around? Also will you look at find out when summer school starts at dixie state next year please. Thanks. Well love you and thanks for the support and love. See ya.

My Black Brother Ben

August 31, 2009

Hey,

Well survived another week here in the good old Ukraine. Unfortunatly nothing to crazy happened. People just still being mean and others being somewhat nice. Haha. WE dont have any warm water again so i shower like 2 or 3 times a week and just enough to get wet. I hate cold showers. Oh by the way no rush or anything but in one of the next packages will you send some American toothpaste. Thanks. We went on a picnic that was way cool and saw some sweet mountains and things. It was fun. Things for the most part when it comes to investigators are going well. My black brother Ben is on date for baptism for the Sept 13 so hopefully all goes well. We are also trying to start a english gospel principle class though for the Africans. Magic though couldnt meet with us last week but tomorrow we are suppose to meet with him so that will be sweet. I think he has alot of potential. Tell Bud whats up. Man that would have been so sweet to throw 70% of the time. Is Mike Sharp the QB? That is funny about Kipp and sending a Bike. Haha they should have just sent the mission president a wallbed. That sucks that Alex Smith isnt starting. Yesterday we talked with this guy that had been in jail for 9 years for robbing people. Haha he was a pretty funny guy though. My companion thought he was going to rob us though. I cant believe how little time Braxten and Skylar have left. I swear if either of them get married before i go home there is going to be a beat down haha. P-day we usually go bowling or play cards or something. Nothing to excting since there isnt much to do. I should get the packages next week though so thanks. Check your email though tomorrow because i might need you to email you about something for Ben. I want to get him a Quad scriptures but i dont know if they have them here yet so i will let you know. Anyways love you and i hope everything is going well.

Running Around Butt Naked!!

Hey,

Whats going on? Things here are going well. The bus ride wasnt that bad, I sat next to an Elder who is a really good friend and we seriously talked the whole way there. Didnt sleep at all. Haha left at 8 and got there at 4:30am. Anyways my new companion is really cool. He is from Las Vegas and probably the smartest person i know. He has said a few words in english that i needed a translation for it. He went to BYU. But check this out. So after i picked him up at Presidents we were walking to the branch and then he is like "Hey i dont think you remember but we went to EFY together 3 years ago." Haha then i thought about it and remembered and we really did. So if you can try to find my pictures from EFY when i was at the U that would be sweet. Pretty crazy though eh? But yea we are doing well and i like him alot already. We took a 9 hour train ride back the next day but i slept the whole way since they have beds in the train. But food wise just send like Mac and Cheese. You dont need to but if you want to yea. Top Ramen is good too. Just whatever i dont really care. My area is pretty nice though weather wise. Not to bad. Tell Portia hey. That is crazy about Brett Favre still playing. Old man. Magic though is his first name and his wife is ukrainian. He is a general practiononer. He is awesome and so is Ben from Ghana. That quarterback must be so fast 4.2. That is sweet though. How is Vick doing? So yea yesterday and church we were walking home when this guy is like running and staggering towards us. When all of a sudden he bends down and takes off his pants and shoes and throws them into this river we were walking by. Keeps running takes off his shirt and underwear and throws them in to. So he is just running around butt naked and we had no idea what to do. We were the only ones around and i knew that he was crazy and must have escaped from the medical hospital right by where we were. We found someone and they called the cops. It was pretty funny and crazy at the same time. Oh the things you see in Ukraine. Well hope all is well.

Love you.
