One year in Sweden

Hej alla!

Hit a benchmark this week, and have officially been in Sweden for a year! It's a weird feeling. Feels like I have no excuse if I don't understand what someone is saying. Lol.

This week:

- we met a nonmember guy on the street whose mom was member of the church a long time ago! Super cool and random miracle.

- had zone conference, and gave a presentation. And got free food!

- Sang a musical number with the elders for the musikafton #wentalright BUT our friend who we've taught for a while CAME! And it was super awesome. She loved it.

- we wrote a haiku every night

Looking SUPER forward to general conference this weekend where we get to listen to our living prophet and his apostles!!!

Yay.

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...

A Thursday Night Dop

Hej alla! This past week was a little bit crazy, but it was great! Our friend Frida was supposed to get baptized on Saturday, but then asked if we could move it to Thursday! So we did! It was really great. A lot of members came to support her, and it was very sweet. Unfortunately, she was supposed to get confirmed on Sunday and then felt really sick that morning and couldn't come to church... it'll have to be next Sunday, then! (Though I won't be there to see it...) We also: - helped our friend move apartments, and met a friend of his who personally knows Bob Marley, Muhammad Ali, and several other famous people. He then played his harmonica for us. Very cool. - we also met his other friend who was also there help him move, and we gave him a Book of Mormon! - Had some good lessons with great friends - Had a lesson with a girl who admitted that she's actually trying to convert us into being pentecostal... And we also got transfer news-- I'll be moving to a diffe...
