We got an actual letter from Zed today! It’s a very short letter, but it was great to hear from him. He said, in part, “It’s been great so far,” and gave a list of “significant happenings/facts”: his companion’s name is Vanhin Smith (Phin speculated that his companion’s name would be Matt Schwinger, so there’s a good possibility some of us will continue calling all of his companions Vanhin Schwinger); he gave his first lesson in Finnish Friday morning and he said it was rough; he’s district leader of a district with 2 sisters and 3 elders (is he not including himself in this count? I don’t know). And he wrote his testimony in Finnish for us. Also, my brother Ethan and my friend Char were right — his p-day is Thursday!
It’s so good to hear from him! I hope he’s having a great time.

Sorreee! Don’t want to offend the figment of Phin’s imagination!

Hmmm. I’d forgotten that Ethan works at the MTC. Will they run into each other there? Glad to hear he is sounding positive. 🙂

They already did run into each other. I wrote about Ethan’s text on here but didn’t post it on Facebook, so hardly anyone has looked at it. Facebook is so powerful. Here’s that post: https://zedinfinland.wordpress.com/2014/11/03/day-4-news/
