Hello to everyone back home, this is Brian. I've been asked to say a few words about our most recent excursion. This past week we had the opportunity to a large town called Salikamsk. It's about a four hour drive north of Perm. Throughout the week we ran multiple practices a day and spoke in several different schools. At night we were split up and stayed with different people throughout the community. Alex, Dare, Matt, and myself stayed with a young couple named Andre and Dasha. They were the highlight of my week. Both were so kind and hospitable to us. They drove us around, took us to the pool, cooked for us (even at 11:30 at night), and made us feel at home. I think that everyone enjoyed their time in Salikamsk and look is looking forward to moving on to our next destination, Chernuska and then Kungur. Thank you everyone for your prayers. I love you ma!

Sounds like it was a great week mr brian. It's so cool to stay in the homes of the russian people. I think that was the most memorable week of my outreach. Keep up the great work! and have fun!
