Week 9: Holy Crap 1

Hello, I have made it here in Russia. The first day we were here me and my trainer went and visited a member. She is about 80 years old. It was so fun. She seemed really nice even though I didn't understand anything she was saying. She gave me some of her dad's war medals from WW2. We shared a quick spiritual thought and then took a train 4 hours to my new area Krasnodar. It's one of the lowest areas in the mission. I heard it still gets down to -40 sometimes. My trainer is sick. He has been out for 21 months and knows a lot of Russian. He has perfect grammar and a huge vocabulary. I love it here. It's always going. We taught some after-baptism lessons this week. We taught this African in English and that was cool. Yesterday we went over to a member's house to give her a blessing and I ended up eating pig liver. It was cold and I kind of wanted to die but I got through it. I also got some Chinese apple slices. So sour, the 16 year old kid dipped his in salt and ate it. I thought it was sugar because I didn't understand what anyone was saying. I ate it and my mouth took a spin and it was crazy haha. BOOOOOm!   I don't understand most things. And they way they taught us to say our name and where we are from is not the way they say it, hahah. It's chill though and I love it. I'm doing good.  I hope everyone is doing good.
