Laba diena!
Sister Walles and I are just loving our time here. It is such an incredible blessing to be able to serve in this cute little sea town with so many wonderful people and an awesome companion. This week we have been able to get to know the area quite a bit. It is pretty small, but at the same time we do have half of the city :) We have been able to do a lot of talking with people, and the weather has been great. Many have heard of the church before, but they are all such good people.
This week we were able to meet with a sea man who often is away at sea, but is a really solid person. He is very interested in the book of mormon and has been investigating for some time now. It is just difficult for him as he often gone. Sister Walles and I also get to teach english twice a week to the sweetest students. An older man that actually speaks very good english and a middle aged woman who can only say, sank you very much :) They are so sweet and we have such a good spirit there from them.
On Thursday we were able to stop by an older lady who is a member to buy her groceries because she can't walk very well. It was the best service opportunity I have had in a long time. It was so humbling and fulfilling to be in her presence and learn from her strong faith. I loved being able to serve her and help her in any way. She is such a great example to me!
We also visited a cute family from the branch to talk about the book of mormon. They live very simply but are so good! They radiate with peace and love. The granddaughter is so sweet and shared her favorite verse of enduring to the end. I know that if we every day will live the gospel of christ, we shall have eternal life. We will be happy now and know that in the world to come, we will be with God. I love you, have a great week!
Love sis Dzerman

| An old lady gave us a huge zucchini straight from her garden after we helped her clean up her yard for service. It was humongous! |
