Long Night

16 December 2009
"We had a fairly lazy day today. It was the first one since I have come, but it was sure crazy. This morning we got up and we didn't do much. I studied and all of course. After that, we did our planning, and then we ate a nice big meal of chicken and noodles. We headed out to do a little contacting.

We walked forever with little success. We talked with a few people, but not as many as we would have liked. People weren't really up for talking with us, but I think part of that had to do with us. We didn't contact near as well as we should have. We also searched for a home for a nice long while, but we sure didn't find it. We asked a ton of people, but no one seemed to know where it was. We then came home for dinner and chilled a bit. I was so tired for some reason. We sat around before heading to шавкат's house.

There things are well, and надежда (their neighbor) was there again. We taught her about the Book of Mormon and then we chatted for a bit. She said that she is scared to come to church because she has never been. We encouraged her to pray about it. After the meeting was the long walk home. We waited for our bus forever before making it home. What an adventure - that is part of the mission!"
