"What is chocolate? it is eternal life"- should we get twickers or snix? (Sept 12)


haha the quote is from when we were planning our FHE lesson and we are having a play of lehis dream etc and the candy is the prize haha but we realized it was super funny....haha maybe you had to be there.

President is changing a bunch of our mission! He is calling our mission to repentance which was probably necessary. Crazy thtat you can call a whole mission to repentance. We are now a by the book Preach my Gospel mission  which is sweet. and we are no longer the Siberian Battallion, we are THE VINEYARD!  from jacob 5. pretty epic huh?  

some random news.  alot of girls when they see pictures of jake say that i have a very beautiful brother :) haha so you are famous here jake so if you cant find anyone at home to like you maybe move to russia!    Haha   we were walking down the street and an old lady called out us to to come over to talk to her, so we happily did of course!  and then she started going at us telling us to not talk to her because she wouldn't listen and she didn't want to talk to us!  she doesn't want to be saved by us germans or italians or americans or whoever we are! so she won't listen so don't even try to talk to her!!! haha we were shocked because she in fact called us over to talk.....haha whatever. 

my companion siad an interesting thing this week. She said that sometimes she feels that our job is to just come here and to spread happy juice all over. but she realized that that isn't our job. We have a sacred calling. Not just as missionaries but as members of the church to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  The message that through our Savior and the mercy of our loving Heavenly Father we can live happily and successful on this life, becoming better everyday and we do that through holy scriptures and revelation and words frm prophets who talk to God!  and after this life we can become like them, live with God and our families! how great is our calling!  

well the computer is freaking out telling me i only have like 3 minutes left!  and i din't even tell you enough!  this week i have seen how the gospel changes lives ad how it answers questions of the soul and can change people to be completely different and give hope!  That is how i know this gospel is true!  that it takes people and shows them their potential and also shows us how to reach that potential!   I love this gospel and i love you all so much ! thanks for all you do! and thanks to those that write! and to my siblings- WRITE ME!!!!
