Lupta mare de zăpadă

 Bună Bună!!

Highlights:
-Had an awesome lesson with our friend Adina!! The spirit was so strong!!
-Met with a family in our branch to talk to their son, Ianis, about baptism!! We invited him to be baptized and he said yes!
-Went with our district to go visit one of our members who isn't able to make it to church right now. We had lunch with her, the elders gave her the sacrament, and then we had a spiritual thought.; it was so amazing! Then as we were leaving we took some time to say hi to her 9 dogs!! It was so fun and full of snuggles!!
-Visited Sora Isac and she told us all about her different crafts and tips on learning languages (she knows 6 and is learning Turkish for fun, so you already know I was taking notes)
-Had an exchange with Sora Uryan!! It was definitely a bummer because their train came in late and ate up an hour or two of our exchange. BUT it was still awesome!  Among other things we went and did service at the ROM EXPO (a center for Ukrainian refugees), and went to a member meal with Sora Stoica!! Sora Uryan is awesome and we were able to relate about a lot of things!! It was so fun getting to know her!
-We got DUMPED ON this weekend with probably about 6 inches of snow overnight (some yall may not be too impressed but remember this isn't Utah I'm talking about). Sora Wolsey and I got to the church and realized the parking lot probably needed to be cleared for games night and church the next day... So we decided to get shovels and do it ourselves!! We definitely got a few strange looks (as we were clearing the snow in our dresses) but we were able to get it done!!  
- During church today after sacrament we were informed that the Sunday School teacher wasn't there, so of course, Missionaries take over! Luckily we all had studied this week (and the lesson was on Lehi's dream) so we were able to pull something together really quick and I think we did ok!
-Officially hit a new all-time weekly Mcflurry count... came in at 4 this week!! Lets goo!!!
Funny:
During games night we had a massive snowball fight. Sora Reynolds and I got absolutely destroyed. It seemed like everyone was against us.  This little 10 year old demon was out for blood and sniped us with snowballs to the ears. At one point I slipped and fell and took about 8 snowballs as I laid sprawled on the ground. It was a good time 😂 
Gând Spiritual:
"Enduring to the end is a hallmark of true discipleship and is essential to eternal life. But when trials and challenges come our way, we are often told to simply “hang in there.” Let me be clear: to “hang in there” is not a principle of the gospel. Enduring to the end means constantly coming unto Christ and being perfected in Him."
Elder Kevin W. Pearson
Vă Iubesc!!
