I
never really know what to write. Sometimes I think, hey give them a spiritual
thought, or a personal experience, or maybe just a cute story will do. Then
after e-mail time is said and done, i think OPE i forgot to mention... i tak
dalej.
In the spirit of
Christmas we have been taking up a spirit of service! Funny as our whole time
here has missionaries is a spirit of service.
Last week we went,
"snowflaking". We met up with our one and only Young Women and
well... this is how one goes snowflaking in Poland.
1. get in touch with
your YW
2. cut out some lovely
snowflakes
3. go to the address
of the person you will be "snowflaking"
4. awkwardly domofon
all the apartments in the building to try and convice the neighbours to let you
in (all in Polish of course)
5. tape the snowflakes to the door
6. leave a plate of
cookies on the ground (homemade of course)
7. ding and ditch
8. treat everyone to
some classy starbs (I recommend a soy steamer with gingerbread.)
And well that is one
of the things we did this last week along with out trackting, teaching,
visiting, helping, studying, lots of -ings.
Yesterday we
volunteered at a dom opieki. We were part of the Wigilia celebration (Christmas
Eve minus that where it is actually christmas Eve... but that is when they
wanted to do their big dinner.) We sang kolęndy and they fed us a big
traditional Polish feast afterwards. I think they were the ones serving
us.

NXT WK: update on
transfer calls (I am pretty sure I'll be going to Australia z Siostrą Grgich)
and well maybe a little note on Polish Pierniki. Also I might be emailing on
Tuesday (plan for Monday but know that it might be tuesday) due to transfers.
-going to Australia, I FIT! (sidenote: i got to study marc chagall in one of my art classes and I was always perplexed at how he painted some of the angles of people's ehads... maybe he just imaginied them in suitcases... look at the Kiss)
WESOŁYCH ŚWIĄT! xoxo
