Well like this week has been crazy with the tri-pan (3 missionaries in one companionship) so like imma do this email ehemm style:
- Elder Silvennoinen is super duper smart. You wanna know how smart? He is LITERALLY memorizing the Bible.. Like in Comp study he will quote the three chapters he has read and like make 1 or two minor mistakes... it is the coolest thing ever!
- This week I saw my favorite short Mormon movie. It is called "The whole armor of God" Jodi do you remember that one? Anyway, as I was watching it, it just hit me on how grateful I am for being raised the way I did and by the parents I have. Sorry to like ruin everyone's' day but like you might think you have good parents but I have the best parents ever. Ain't that right "soon to be RM" Hermana Hemmingsen??
-We also did another one of those chalk art drawings this week but as we were drawing, a group of 400+ protesters for immigration came into the square and we left... So now there is a half filled in map of the world in Segels Torget... #awesome
Well our investigators our doing well too! We have this old Polish lady that we meet and when we asked her if she wanted to get baptized she said she already prayed about it and wants to get baptized on her birthday!! It isn't until December 2 (which is not that far away #Liz) but she was very excited to do it on that day!
I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have to share the gospel here in Sweden! This is the best mission! #SorryIsaac
Daniel (the elite runner) is a stud! He has been very tired from training but he still came to institute last Wednesday. Life is so good in Gubbängen. We are super busy with random stuff e.i.. Stockholm stake leadership training, transfers, we are also currently district leaders, teaching English, teaching the gospel, blessing babies/comforting elderly ;), and like of course sports night. It's the real deal!
I'd just like to end this real quick with a fabulous scripture I read this week:
23 For behold, I am God; and I am a God of miracles; and I will show unto the world that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever; and I work not among the children of men save it be according to their faith. Sometimes people forget that it is faith that brings miracles NOT miracles that bring faith. You want to increase your faith in the Savior? Act.
I love you all so much!! Thanks for the support! Now have a nice week y'all! (Is that how it is spelled Chad Jensen? ;))
Peace,
äldste hemmingsen
