Week 54 in Rauma (Blinding, ain't it?)

Look at that.

Beautiful, look at it!

Look at what, you may ask?

Well... nothing. You see, my camera is still kaput. I borrowed another, older(very very older) camera from Bishop Vesterinen, but unfortunately, the pictures can't upload to this computer. So... we're blind today. But we should be able to go camera shopping soon! My apologies for not having pictures this week, but hey - I should have a surplus next week!

But, let's take a look(heh heh) at what went down this week!

On Tuesday, I said goodbye to my beloved Elder Ames, and headed down to Helsinki, stayed the night with the Neitsytpolku Elders! (For those of you who remember that far back, neitsytpolku was my old stomping grounds! I also got to teach Abdi, one of my best friends from Helsinki, with Elder Viitanen and Faught!) The next morning, we bussssed out to the mission home, and met our new companions!

My trainee is Elder Hale, from Mapleton Utah! Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures, but imagine him. He's a whiz with languages, and is picking up Finnish really nicely! We came back the same day via Tampere, to Rauma!

The next day, we had a wonderful first District Meeting of the transfer, and set some wonderful proselyting goals for this change! We also had a few lessons that day!

Friday was planning (also some wood chopping for one of our members!), super fun, Saturday was full of work, super fun, and Sunday was church! The members here love Elder Hale!

We also have a ton of potential people to teach right now, so this future week is gonna be full of that.

Hmm... what else? It's been raining a bit, and I've been ridiculously busy with my District Leader stuff. Having set some awesome and huge goals, I'm keeping track of almost all of them, which means that my evenings are quite busy. But, nonetheless, we're having such a blast!

Sorry again for the lack of pictures, but hey. Still love you all!
