Translating

28 January 2006
"It turned out to be an all right day. We had nothing planned this morning, and so we were a little worried but luckily something turned up. So I started to translate President Benson's talk on pride this morning, and that will be cool to have that in Russian. We then headed out to do a little contacting and that went pretty well. We didn't have a ton of success, but things went as usual. After contacting, we got some things and we made some Russian плов. It was actually really good, and we did a decent job of making it. Following lunch we had a meeting turn up with some young people. They really wanted to meet and so we set up a time today. They were fairly young and were interested. There was 2 Alexs and then Мария. I walked and talked with her most the time, and she had a lot of questions about what we believe. We finished that up, and then we went to the branch apartment where we had a fairly ineffective собрание миссонеров but there was a good spiritual thought about being here on a mission. People are always watching us and looking to us as an example. We must show them who we are. Following the meeting we went to sports tonight where we had a pretty good time. There were a ton of people there, so that was insane, but we played hard and had a good time. Afterwards I walked to the stop, and little Костя walked with me, and it was a crazy feeling, but a good one to have this little guy looking up to me. There are part of the joys of the future."
