So we had a super duper busy week (way more than normal) of lots of random things....
- Once a month we have a meeting with the stake pres and Pres Beckstrand about how the work is going in the stake. So we have to call all the companionships and fill out this report... it took 9 hours from Monday to Wednesday to fill out!
- I went on splits with the bro Elder DeMourdant himself! We had a lunch with a member that lived 2 hours east of Stockholm by bus.. I am sick of buses haha
- We were asked to help with a funeral on Thursday. The man was a less active member (due to health problems). There were quite a bit of non members there and sweet Brother Håkan Palm just bore his testimony on how the Plan of Salvation is true. It was very sweet and the missionaries were even asked to lower the casket into the grave. The funeral was very nice and I am grateful for the Plan of Salvation.
- On Saturday we had a ward party! The party was a clothing exchange and the YW did a fashion show with all their ugly clothes. We (Archi, Carrigan and I) were asked to be the emcees of the show.... hahaha
Well like that is all I got! We are hosting a Halloween party today with of 40 missionaries so it should be good!
Well life is super good here. Transfers are this next week. I am guessing that Archibakd goes to the office and I stay here for another six! Gubbängen is such an amazing place and I love Stockholm! I am so grateful that I have been able to serve here.
Well I would like to rap this up with a little spiritual sugar:
17 Verily, verily, I say unto you, ye are little children, and ye have not as yet understood how great blessings the Father hath in his own hands and prepared for you;
18 And ye cannot bear all things now; nevertheless, be of good cheer, for I will lead you along. The kingdom is yours and the blessings thereof are yours, and the riches of eternity are yours.
Oh the gospel is simple, let's keep it that way :) I love you guys!! Keep on keepin on. I love you all!
