there are all so some pics of what ppl wrote on the walls. It was funny to me that one said B.F.F. and Hip hop never dies... There was English and Russian but no Armenian ... Am I the only one that finds that odd?
So this week has gone by so good I really had a lot of fun! Nork is so great I finally feel like I’m really a missionary. A lot of time I do the work but I don’t feel like much is happening. I know I’m doing good I just don’t know where. But here at Nork I can see the need is so great for the missionaries and they just love us so much.
I did some research and found out more about missionaries in Nork. Back in 06 there were sisters that had part of this area but they lived in Arabger which is about 20 min away from here. Then they split the ward 3 or 4 years ago and gave the Elders that part of the area and the rest of Nork… then like I said in my last letter they had to close it down for a while. Now I’m here, so for most of the area my comp and I are in we are the first Sister missionaries here.
So I want to tell you we have awesome people here, our first few days were hard! We did like 6 hrs of walking straight for the first few days because we had no investigators. And didn’t know any of the members or less actives. So we got out our ward list and would pick one and go try to find their house. We spent a full hr. trying to find the 12th dorm, they don’t order them in order it’s all crazy and really hard but we found it… God found it and showed us where to go. That’s really how it went down.
The members here love us and keep giving us referrals. It’s so nice that they trust us and want to have us teach their friends. It makes the work a lot smoother when the members help ya out. We also have a way good Branch President and that helps a lot.
So we found investigators!!!! Yay!!! Well I just can’t tell you how much my testimony of how much this is not anything I’m doing its all the Lord at work I just get to come along for the ride. We have way good investigators really they are bomb! Luisa has decided to be baptized on May first. And Fina was trying to figure out if she wanted to wait for her son (Degron) or not and she came to the decision that she should get baptized now and not wait!!!! I could have cried I was so happy. Most people here put it off, and then it doesn’t happen, but she really wants it and I’m so happy for her! Oh so fun world Fina and Degron are Russian so My American companion and I are teaching in our second language and they’re learning in their second language. And somehow they know this church is true and keep coming back for more. I’m so grateful that the Holy Ghost only has one language!
So after writing you last week I found a puppy and decided that I didn’t care I was GOING TO PET IT!!! That was until it TRIED TO BITE ME!!! AND RAN ME OUT OF THE PARK!!! I had no idea puppies could be anything but friendly lol. So I saw it and was going to it and it came to me and right as I was like yay a puppy… it started to make biting noses and charging me lol then it called its attacker killer puppy friends and the 3 of them chased me out… But it’s ok when we were leaving our apartment I saw them again and gave them some bread and after that we were friends but I didn’t end up petting them… It did try to bite me… We also found a bear in that park! … ok so it turned out to be a massive dog but still I thought it was a small bear!
How has the weather been there it’s been really rainy here but it’s warm for the most part. Whats going on with the family? How is Grandma and all of them? I need an informant that keeps me updated on whats going on with the family.
Hey what are the chances of me getting a hand written letter from home? You don’t have to … lol
Well love you all so much hope all is well. Love your Favorite missionary Queer Fergie
