The work goes one.
We've still been dinking around with the registration junk. Temporary residency laws keep changing and the paperwork here is ridiculous, but it's interesting once in a while.
One of the neatest things this week was visiting an American member who's working on Chernobyl. He lives in Slavutich. It's a really weird town mostly just inhabited by foreigners working over there. It's about 50 km from Chernobyl. It kinda felt like we'd gone to another country or something. The are nicely organized subdivisions and people have lawns. There weren't even any trees growing out of the sidewalk and you didn't have to duck under the branches. Neat stuff. It was fun.
We also took a ride up to a village on the Belorussian border that I'd been to last year with President Solomein. It's called Dobryanka. It was pretty cool to spend some time with President again though. He's been way busy with work lately, so it's good to get a little time with him. He's awesome.
I love the branch here so much. Even with daylight savings time taking an hour of sleep most of the members were at church early. I love it when people come early. That's rare in this country. We're a peculiar people. I was called as the Branch Executive Secretary yesterday. It'll be a neat new assignment. I'm sure I'll learn some neat things. Any opportunity to work more with Pres. Solomein is a good one.
I love my mission. I love gospel and I love my Savior. I'm grateful for you all and all you do.
I'm in Kiev for preparation day today and some training tomorrow. Good times.
Love,
Elder J. Mahoney
