So this week was pretty good. From Monday evening to Tuesday evening we had exchanges I was with Sister Weisner and it was so awesome! We met some cool people, taught some pretty cool less active people and did some service for the relief society president. Sister Owusu and I also did service for this Russian lady named Nadia. She wanted us to take the old wall paper off her ceiling then put new wall paper back on. She made us some way good Russian food so it was sweet! We also helped with the Poppy Appeal which is a fundraiser thing that raises money for veterans and remembers the people who died in war. It's a really big thing over here so our bishop made sure to get us involved. We ran a booth at the mall near by so that was cool. So a lot of service this week, which was cool because we met a lot of really nice people, especially with the poppy appeal.
It was also bonfire night here in England! It is a celebration they do every year. It comes from when a guy named Guy Fox tried to blow up parliament a really long time ago. So they have big bonfires and set off loads of fireworks all night to celebrate it haha. Weird I know. The funniest part is they make a stuffed dummy and burn it on their bonfire to signify Guy Fox haha!
English people...they are strange!Well love you all! Have a blessed week!
Love,
Sister Rasmussen
P.S. I finally got my picture from when I got to shake Elder Holland's hand! And the other picture is Sister Weisner and I on exchange! She is the coolest Swiss person I know! Then the last one is after service when Nadia made us Russian food!
