First off, shout out to the famous Nathan "22" Webb for getting player of the game in the state tourney this year!! Way to go stud!! You better have some court side seats reserved for me when you're hitting 3s next year!!
Well once again the week was nuts! We had transfers and it went pretty smoothly. No one got lost in Falun and none of the trains started on fire either (that has happened).
We had 6 new sister missionaries come in and 1 elder. They all are amazing. They have incredible Swedish and are just so ready to be missionaries. They all will do amazing things here in the Sweden, Stockholm Mission.
Elder Kendall (if you remember the pic from a few weeks ago) came to the office to be a POE! (proselyting office elder) hahha he's super funny! He and Elder Weaver make a great team #S/O
Elder Archibald and I will be staying together for another transfer. I can't remember if I said that before but yeah, here ya go! After this transfer we will have be companions for 6 months. Good thing we get along. I really am grateful for his example and desire to do good. He is an incredible man. And guess what ladies he'll be home in 3 months!!! #Mrs.Archibald
When The greenies got here we took them on a tour of Stockholm and then went to see the temple. (I ran into Fern. She is from Skelleftea) Wednesday we gave them an orientation of what we do here in the Mission. We teach repentance and baptize converts. I am so jealous of the time that they have left. I have begun to realize how short time really is. I love this place!
Wednesday night we went to pick up the missionaries who were going home. It is weird that the sisters going home came to the mission after me! What!? Also my beloved Elder Albertsen went home! You're a stud man! Miss you much!! #crickets
With every group that goes home, we always have a testimony meeting with the departing missionaries. It is one of my favorite parts of every transfer. It is just so amazing to see the change that these missionaries have had over the course of their missions. They truly have become new creatures in Christ.
We also met with Jasmine this week. She is doing just as good as normal. I have never seen someone turn to the Lord so strongly when they are so new in the gospel. She truly has put all of her trust in God and His plan. I am very grateful for her example!
Things are good here in Sweden. The work is hastening. I know it. This is a choice land. I am so grateful to serve here with these amazing missionaries members and everyone else!
Have a nice week! Love you all!!
