Dear Family and Friends,
THe weeks and months are passing so quickly, I feel like I can hardly keep up. I keep missing writing my weekly lettes because the day is gone before I get to the compupter and then I'm so tired I just go to bed (poor excuse - sorry). I can't believe it's already July. That means that we have been here for 7 months already and we only have 11 more to go. Amazing! And...it's the 4th of July at that!!!!! Happy 4th of July everyone! WE miss you! We miss the swimming, BBQ, family, fireworks, Utah and the USA!!!!! But we're happy here, it's just not the same as being there with all of you.
June was another great month, we had something going on every week. I have to send in a monthly report to Moscow which then gets sent on to Salt Lake to keep in the history files (Can you imagine what that must be like?) so I thought I would just forward it on to you. It explains a lot of the tings that we did that I didn't tell you about in my "no letter writing" weeks. We also had our second visa trip to Kiev during the month and it went just fine with no problems so I didn't mention it in my letter. One thing though, while we are the Temple in Kiev, we ran into our Branch President and his wife, and Dima, who is our "boss" with or Humanitarian work. That was pure coincidence but it was great to meet them there.
It seems like our group of missionaries changes just about every few weeks. We're constantly saying goodbye and hello to them. We're adjusting better to the continual change but we sure get attached quickly and love working with them all.
We love you all so much too. We think about you and pray for you every day. Life continues to put challenges in our way, every one of us, but I agree with President Hickley when he said that this is a wonderful time to live on the Earth. So many miracles continue to happen every day that helps to offset some of the sorrow and destruction we see every day. We try to look at the glass half full side of things and we are so grateful for the blessings that we have in our lives. These are definitely hard times but they are wonderful times too. So much of our happiness comes from you - our family and friends. We love you and miss you and hope that you make the most of the joy and happiness that surrounds you every day.
Love,
