We had transfers this past week and they transferred all the Elders in our District (except Elder Arave of course he is stuck with Sister Arave as a companion, FOREVER). We were an international district: Elder Smirnov from Russia, Elder Wichtermann from Switzerland, Elder Carter from California, Elder Asbury from Utah, and of course the Arave's from Wapello. We were also a multi-lingual district, Russian, German, English, & Spanish. You should have heard us sing in all those languages. We came close to competing with the Tabernacle Choir. They were a fun group to be with. We are going to miss them, not only were they a great help to us in getting adjusted to St. Petersburg, they were very good translators and excellent cooks. They made us a couple of delicious Russian meal at our District meetings.
