Hello everyone!
So last last week on Friday I got a call in the evening from
Presdient Blair that said I would be leaving on Monday for Ukraine. So I packed
my bags like a good missionary and headed out with my two companions. The
reason there was no email last week was because I didn't get a P-day. I was
just on a plan all day. So I apologies. I flew from Manchester, New Hampshire
to Detroit. Then To Amsterdam, Netherlands where we had a long layover. Then we
met up with the other missionaries from the MTC and other State side missions
and flew togther to Kyiv Ukraine.
President and Sister packer are amazing. I am glad to serve
here in Ukraine. We had a short training where we met our new trainers and got
to know the mission a little better on Tuesday. And we found out that even all
of us missionariews who were waiting for visas in the US were going to be
starting training over. So instead of me being in traing for Twelve weeks, I
get to be a trainee for Twenty one weeks! I'll just go with it. so I will be
finished with training when I have been out serving for around Eight months.
Crazy right!
My new Trainer's name is Elder Carr. He's from Texas near
Dallas. He's really cool and gets really excited when poeple call us back or
when we getto teach. He's great.
We are one of four sets of missionaries serving in the
Pechersky area. It's the dead center of Kyiv and we get all of the cool stuff.
And we have all three Metro lines in our area as well as the crazy awesome WWII
museum and the Radina Mat statue.
So far the jet lag has been pretty darn mild compared to my
last experinece living around this area in the world.
Apparently it snowed a ton here in Kyiv on the dau we were
all flying here to great us. it was a bit chilly when we got here. but luckely
the things I had were just fine. My companion and I went and bought the rest of
the winter gear I need and now I am all set.
Everything is just wonderful. Especially because I get to
devote everything I have to the great work of God!
