Monday, August 4, 2008






So, this week I found out that my grandpa died, but I know that everything will be OK.

We have an investigator with a date for baptism, but I found out I am leaving my area and going to be with Elder Ward. He is red-shirting for BYU football, I think. I will confirm that at a later date. It is his third transfer in the country, so we will see how much fun this is, and we are serving in the most populated part of Kiev, so this will be cool.

I want to talk about pics this week - first, my vegetables for the week. You can see I have to clean them with bleach so I don't get sick. They are freshly cleaned. 2 pics of my district; one normal and one where we surprised my companion. I taught him how to make pancakes, so there is a pic. Yes, we used flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, sprite, eggs, oil, & banana. We went bowling with a member named Gleb; he is a strong guy. And last, you can see I have a problem with McDonald's. :)

So, feelings on my transfer...I am happy. I have wanted to serve in that area, but I don't want to finish my mission there. I have only seen missionaries learn surgik there (that's mixing Russian and Ukrainian together). I hate that part of it, but its a strong ward and I am happy to serve there.
Well that's about all for right now. I will be more detailed next week, I promise!

I love you all! Talk to you next week!
з любовою, старійшина гокансон (with love, Elder Hokanson)
