1st Update from Blake

WOW i love HUNGARY its so awesome here!!! We first stayed
the night at the mission home with the Gaussers and
then that next morning were told where we were going
and who we would be serving with.
Elder Mansell is my companion and he's way fun,
a great trainer, and im in Debrecen.
I love it here this pastweek has been always sunny
and really cold though. I love it here it only
took about that first day to get adjusted but even
then i was pretty well with it.
Im still a bit tired but thats mainly from just the everday
stuff we do. Wow its so amazing here even though the
languageis tough its really coming along fast now.

Arrived Safe


Elder Smith arrived in Hungray February 17th, 2009,
That evening he enjoyed dinner prepared by Sister Gasser with all the
new missionaries in the mission home and later a few minutes of
sight-seeing in the beautiful city of Budapest after dark.

Elder Smith arrived with a wonderful spirit and a sincere desire to
serve and teach the people of Hungary.

OFF TO Hungray

Hello Everyone,
Keep a prayer in your hearts Monday for Elder Blake Smith, as he will be flying to Hungary! He is so anxious to get there! I think the language is coming well, but it will be a complete shock when he gets there and wonders what language they are speaking!!! I'm sure he will feel a little inadequate for awhile, but I know the spirit will direct him, he has a great attitude! Drive by our house, our Hungarian flag will be flying! Love, Carol
