RIP dude on the street

 Hejsan! 

This week was good. We did quite a bit of finding, and also had Splits with the sisters that work right in in the center of Stockholm! 

We:
- ate fika with a member who told us the craziest story I've ever heard ft. murder and fraud 
- met a young guy on the street, and got his contact information! But when we reached out two days later, we got a message back saying that the guy we were trying to reach has passed away. We thought it was a joke at first, but it turns out it wasn't. #RIP 
- went to a cute little castle for a lesson with a slightly crazy guy 
- had a really good lesson with our friend *Mary
- had MLC on Tuesday, which was actually really fun! 

Here's a scripture that I read this morning and loved:
Alma 26:37
"Now my brethren, we see that God is mindful of every people, whatsoever land they may be in; yea, he numbereth his people, and his bowels of mercy are over all the earth. Now this is my joy, and my great thanksgiving; yea, and I will give thanks unto my God forever. Amen."

I know that God is aware of each and every one of his children. No matter where we are or what we're going through.

Love you all!

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...

IT'S HOT

  Hej there everyone! This past week, as you might have guessed based on the subject line, was SO HOT. Holy goodness, me.  I learned two things from that trial: 1. I don't like the heat. 2. Black bike seats get SCORCHING when they sit out in the sun. Hot enough that you have to bike standing up to spare yourself the pain. Otherwise your caboose will be SUFFERING. I know it's a shocker, but I have yet to hear from Salt Lake about my travel plans to Sweden. (It's actually not a shocker. This is an official petition for them to get it together.)  Anywho, last week was honestly a struggle. It was hot, I was tired, and I kid you not when I say that every nonmember lesson we had ended up cancelling on us. Or not answering the door. Or not responding. Additionally, one of the people we had on date for baptism backed out, and doesn't want to meet with us anymore.  BUT, the existence of trials does not mean that there are no miracles.  To name a few: - I didn't pass out ...
