08 Aug 2011

It has been a wonderrful week.  President and Sister Sorenson came back to our mission.  This is just a short blog to share that
wonderful news.  Our faith and prayers were answered.  It is a miracle that they were able to
return.  Before they left for the USA for medical treatment, Sister Sorenson had me and Elder Gronning come to their house and show us everything in it that belong to them and the things that
needed to stay.  She was not sure if they would be returning so if they did not she wanted us to
know what to pack up and what to leave.  So that is how serious things were before they left.
So one big, huge Mosocow Mission Miracle.  They are back and the mission is complete again.
They were missed soooooo much.

 
They have the most beautiful flowers here.  Flower shops along the streets
everywhere you go.  There is a shop by our apartment and we had
this bouquet made for President and Sister Sorenson.  We chose the flowers
and they arranged them.  It was a little hard in sign language, but we did it.

Aren't they cute?  They were so happy to be back.

This is the 8 new missionaries that arrived on Wednesday.  They
are a great bunch.  We sent 5 home.  So it was a big transfer.

Elder Hansen, one of our favorites.  He was leaving for home and this was
his last English club night.  Bach-T's father baked this pastry for
him.  They are not members but Bach-T comes to English club. We
will sure miss him.  He has been in Z-Grad for about the past 7 months.
I baked the little tupperware of chocolate cookies.

Back just in time to celebrate his birthday.

Happy Birthday to President Sorenson.  Pres. Sorenson, Elder Page, Bishop
Kosak, Elder Lex, Elder Bruev, me, Elder Breedlove and Sister Sorenson

Just to make things clear... the ONLY reason Bree was able to comment before me is because my blogger account hasn't been working! I've read your blog NUMEROUS times, looked at the lovely flowers, the yummy cake and your cute faces and wanted to comment, but each time I tried, I was denied. So, here I am... hoping this comment will go through. Love you!!!!
