Jello Juice

Mongolia is great!!! Im loving life and working super hard.

This week though something kinda funny happened. In Mongolia 80% of the products (food, clothing, etc.) are in a different language so they can't read the instructions or what exactly it is. Its kinda sad actually, but anyways these awesome members invited us over for dinner and they gave us this pink looking drink. We were really suprised because Mongolians usually drink and give either a hot milk, salt drink or hot water. When she gave us this we asked her what it was. She showed us the package very excitedly and we read 'JELLO' on the front. Turns out she had bought a russian jello mix and thought it was a juice drink mix. We was so proud and happy we didnt have the heart to tell her we didn't want to drink it. So we drank it all... and every time we took a couple of sips so would refill it! It was like drinking slimy syrup!!! I felt like throwing up after drinking it!!!!

My companion is great. He is going home in December and he is a linguist so hes got awesome mongolian and mongolian sign language so he has been teaching me a lot! And he is really obedient and easy to be with so we have just been doing great work! Funny stories, well you can ask trent, I told him a funny one.

Well our church was FULL to the back in EVERY class!!!! We have been working hard on the ALAs and yesterday we filled the church COMPLETELY!!! In every meeting, in every classroom, it was totally full!!!

This week was another great one, we didnt get 21 lessons this week but we almost hit it. We got 17 lessons! And what I love the most is that they were all quality lessons! We have a lot of investigators that are doing really well, and we keep getting these investigators from out of nowhere and its just another way of God showing us His blessings. I love this work and im proud to be doing it.
