Hejsan!
What a packed week. I moved to Stockholm, said goodbye to some awesome people in Lund, and met a million new people here--whether that be in the ward, on the tunnelbana, or on the street.
My new companion's name is Syster Bagley and she's awesome! She's from Utah, and has been here in Gubbängen for two transfers already.
This week's highlights AND lowlights (Which is which? Player's choice.):
- I ate a whole bunch of halloumi (grilled cheese ?) on multiple occasions.
- In the middle of a lesson with two people we were meeting for the first time, one of them interrupted the conversation and said "I'm really sorry but there's just something I need to say. You look like an elf." And immediately after, her friend said "Woaahhh...you know what? You REALLY do. I couldn't put my finger on it but that's exactly right!"
- We taught a lesson in Swedish, which was then translated into Spanish by one of the members in our ward for our friend *Daniel.
- We ate African food, and Mexican food!
- I found out that the apartment here in Gubbängen is nicknamed "the shoe box."
- We talked with a man sitting on a bench for almost 40 minutes one day.
- I ate a traditional Indian dinner, surrounded by about 20 Indian people, in the apartment of a Swedish man named Pablo.
I don't have much time this week, but this is everyone's friendly reminder to
rely on Christ! We're not expected to do this all alone! He's there, He's ready, and his hand is outstretched.
Love you all!
