Our last day has been very eventful so far.  We drove to Nalaikh for sacrament meeting.  Of course we were asked to bear our testimonies since we are leaving which we had expected that since all leaving missionaries bear their testimonies on the last Sunday.  Then we had some members who bore theirs for the first time.  One was a police officer who has worked all the time since we have been here but was there today in uniform and bore his testimony.  And many of the testimonies were emotional.  It was the beast testimony meeting we have had in Nalaikh.  After the meeting, we took a picture of us with the branch.
Then on the way home we had a car accident.  Just bumped bumpers but still had to call the insurance people.  We had hit ice and though we were stopping, the car in front stopped quickly because another car had cut him off, and so we slid into his back bumper.  Luckily he was a nice guy and spoke some English.  We were in the van and they had not put the snow tires on it or else we may not have slid.  But it all worked out okay.
 Then at the building we met more friends to say good-bye to.  This young man is Baaska and he is in the stake choir and came to some of our Michigan classes.
And this is Tsoogii.  She served her mission in the US and we have spent a lot of time talking to each other over the past year.
