Live Laugh Lund

 Hejsan! 


This week was good. It simply always is! 

Syster Kearns' last full week as a missionary was this past week, and I asked her beforehand if there's anything she wanted to do--SPECIFICALLY--to make it awesome. 
All she said was "enjoy it." So we did :) 

We:
- Bought falafel. 
- Went to Zonskonferens up in Helsingborg.
- Bought naturgodis as always. 
- Swung by inactives and got contact with them! 
- Gave testimonies on the fly in Sacrament meeting on Sunday. 
- Accidentally got stuck on the phone with an old lady for almost an hour and listened to her talk about an experience where she "left her body"?
- Had English class with our friend named *Aidan, who is SUPER NICE. 
- Met with our old Romanian friend named *John and answered all of his questions about his experience at church 
- Went and helped out at Seminary for the youth here 
- Had two powerful lessons with a family who's praying over a baptismal date right now! 
- !! GOT TRANSFER NEWS !! Shocker, I know, but Syster Kearns is leaving, and another Syster with be joining me here in the Promised Land ! I'll be picking her up in Stockholm this Wednesday. 
- Listened to Syster Kearns give her closing testimony to the mission on Sunday night over zoom. 
- Had our shower flood like 6 times. #notideal 

I love Lund, I love our friends, I love our ward, and I love my mission. It's truly a unique period of my life.

We've talked quite a bit about the plan of Salvation recently, and I'll just end by saying that I know we're here on earth for a purpose, I know we can fulfill our purpose through Jesus Christ, and I know that life doesn't end after death.
Talk about great news! 

Have an awesome week.

Everything Cancelled

  Tjena!  Everything cancelled this week. Oops. That's alright. Literally everyone is sick it feels like! Whatcha gonna do. We spent quite a bit of time on the street, and... - gave out two Book of Mormons in a Arabic! - gave out a Book of Mormon in Ukrainian! - accidentally met a homeless man with no teeth that had recently thrown up and was gnawing on a rotisserie chicken wing. It was a little traumatizing to be honest💀 - met a man who tried to recruit us into joining his pyramid scheme - took a selfie with a woman from Cambodia who wanted a picture with Americans  We also: - spent an hour trying to match up three huge bags of socks #service - had a game night, and failed to teach some Sri Lankan men how to play UNO  - found a disgusting bug in our butter - read 3 Nephi 11 with our friend and it was awesome  - went on Splits with the Örebro sisters! Quick scripture: 1 Peter 5:6-7 "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you...

One week left?!?

 Tjena! What a crazy time. I love our ward, I love our friends, and I love the snow that we're getting.  This past week we didn't have as many lessons, but the lessons we DID have were golden. 1) We're teaching a Swedish girl about our age and invited a member along. Turns out they work at the same place! It was awesome, they got along great.  2) We had a lesson with our friend *Mont, and talked about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He said that he would love to be baptized, but just needs to grow his faith a little more. His biggest problem is that our doctrine sounds "too perfect to be true." We love him!  3) We had a lesson with our friend *Mitch, and taught him about the Gospel of Jesus Christ as well!! At the end we asked him if he'd be interested in baptism, and he said absolutely. He then picked January 14th!! #miracle  PLUS-- *Mont and his wife even came to our ward Christmas party, and the ward loved them. It was awesome.  I'll be coming home next Mon...

Vill du bli döpt?

  Hej everybody! Sorry I didn't get the chance to email last week, but on the bright side, SO MUCH has happened since you last heard from me that this email is about to be loaded.  First things first, MY SWEDISH DISTRICT CAME LAST WEDNESDAY! I had been doing classes with them online: --And it was super fun, but being with them in person is FAR better... (Shout out to  Äldste Vander Linden, who brought us all sun tanning glasses so that our mission photos, going forward, can be that much more epic).  We started learning Swedish, too, which has definitely been a challenge. BUT, we are very determined to get it down, and we have already done not one, but TWO english fasts (we went without speaking english for 8 hours). We did our first one on Saturday, which went horribly--but then did another one yesterday, and we could already see SO MUCH improvement in our Swedish. It's hard to believe that one day, maybe, hopefully, possibly, I will be completely fluent.  ...
