Lighting Lithuania: Easter is coming!

Trip to Riga for Leadership Training

Us on the bus

It was super great!

I saw Sister Webb from the MTC at the Riga Church!

Hello!!!

We had a really great week here. We were able to meet with an awesome girl for the first time this week. We spent a lot of time talking about God and her beliefs.

She isn't really interested in learning more, but I really felt God's love for her in that lesson and for all His children. I truly do know that He is our loving Heavenly Father and that we can each have a personal relationship with Him.

I was also able to go on exchange with a sister here, and she is super awesome! It was weird to not be in a trio, but it was super great. We are still just contacting and trying to talk to lots of people. Love you all so much

Love ses Dzerman

Sister Griffin wrote - Lithuanians here LOVE sour cream! So funny! We had an activity with popcorn and nachos and the members did not know how to eat popcorn so they started eating the popcorn with kidney beans and loads of sour cream. HAha!! They then came to us and asked what the recipe was for the popcorn and sour cream! I was dying laughing!!!

Sister Madison wrote - Friday night was our "Meet the Mormons" movie night for the public. We invited sooo many people and had a lot of people promise to come, but in the end i think there was one investigator and 5 members, and the rest were missionaries. We had a good time before the activity though helping the sister pop the popcorn and get nacho plates ready. The Lithuanians weren't sure what to do with the food we had set out on the table, so it was hilarious to see how excited they were about this great new "american" dish consisting of kidney beans, sour cream, and popcorn mixed together in a paper cup...and we also were laughing too hard to correct them.
