Transferred to Moscow.

5/5/14
Haha. Just kidding. I am still in Lipetsk. It just feels like I was transferred to Moscow because we were there for so long this week. This week was way good! Lots of adventures. We had a Mission Leadership Conference this week so we went up to Moscow for that. We couldn't find any other trains except for an 11 hour day train so we did that. It was only slightly sketchy. Haha. Then we had MLC. It was so cool. It's like they took the coolest, best missionaries ever and put them in one room. I 100% do not know how I ended up there. Basically we just talked about ways we can help the mission and the missionaries become all they can be. Then we headed to a different part of Moscow for our split! It was so fun. I got to go to a dacha which is kind of like a summer home? I don't know how to explain it. But this family- I met their daughter in the MTC. And they are the most solid family and members ever. We had a lesson with an investigator there and the love that was in their home is mind blowing. The Gospel has changed their lives and they're changing other people's lives because of it. The Spirit was so strong there and it was just a happy time and place. We ended up staying in Moscow an extra day because my companion had to go to the dentist. So we got to meet with one of my old investigators from Nizhny! It was the greatest. We had some other sisters from Moscow with us and so we all went around in a circle and introduced ourselves. When it got to me, the investigator asked if she could introduce me. She said the kindest things. And I was blown away all over again by how much I love my mission and how cool this opportunity to come to Russia and make friends and be a missionary is. It was so cool. Everything is going well here and I'm just a happy girl. I love you all and hope that life is good. Love, Sister Harris
