Roses and Singing

 Hejsan! 


Another amazing week.

Some things:
- We met with a woman who has been really hard to meet with, and asked her if she had any questions for us. Her only question was "How do I become a member of your church?" 
- Had a free concert with the infamous Herrey Brothers who won Eurovision a while back. 
- Helped a young couple move, and then ate the best burger of my life afterwards. 
- Went to a baptism, and had our friend Wanda* come along! She loved it, and is very excited for her baptism next week.
*Side note: The woman who got baptized almost hit her head on the railing on the way into the water--and everyone gasped. And she's incredibly light-hearted and funny about the whole thing. She keeps cracking jokes about it. 
- It was mors dag yesterday here in Sweden, and so all of the women got roses in church and there was tårta afterwards. #score 

We got transfer news, and both me and Syster Prendergast will be staying here in Gubbängen--which we are very happy about! Yay! 

Wanda* keeps nonchalantly bearing her testimony about the Book of Mormon, and saying that it has all the answers. 
I simply must echo her insight--and say that I've found the exact same thing. 

Have the best week !

mors dag roses! 

I made us miss our stop on the tunnelbana not once, but twice, so we had to walk home. Nice!

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...

A fever and a new comp

Tjena! What a week. It was Kaos.  We: - ran around so that Syster Yoachum could say goodbye to everyone before leaving  - had hot chocolate and walnuts with our friend *Matt  - had transfers  - got sick **bonus points, I had a fever and felt AWFUL on transfer day so I stayed home at the apartment to sleep and break my fever before my new companion came to the area. #apostate **extra bonus points, my voice sounds like a grandma who has smoked for like 60 years - did a bunch of street contacting  - put our friend *Anna on date for baptism at the end of September!!! She's come to church 4 times now and she has such a pure soul. Love her.  My new companion is Syster Jaques, (pronounced like Jakes), and she's great! I think we'll have a fun transfer.  Yay! Have a good week everyone, and please enjoy the feeling of not being sick !  Syster Naatjes    Syster Jaques and I in the city hot chocolate and walnuts  the trio (eyes closed) Fika wi...

Fest after Fest

  Tjena!  This week was full of parties. We had a ward grillfest, AND our new member Katarina had her birthday party. Both were good. And both were scheduled at the same time on the same day. So we hopped back and forth!  We also: -met a group of old Iraqian dudes that had a lot to say about the US government -talked with a woman who was walking her pet bunny, and got her number!  - had a bunch of friends at church actually! Our friend that we met on the street two weeks ago came again, and brought her daughter with her! #slay -called a random dude in our records, and reached him EXACTLY when he had sat down to smoke a bunch of cigarettes. He said he felt really alone in his life, and thanked us for calling him. He said that because we called, he knows that God is aware of him.  PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT! God is aware of every one of his children. Including you. In the words of Ammon: "Yea, and [God] looketh down upon all the children of men; and he knows all ...
