Tjena!! A week of good ol' miracles :)  On Tuesday we taught an inactive member we were able to get in contact with, she explained that her cat is now her God which was a first.  So as we walked out of the apartment building we saw a guy on a walk, so we shouted a nice "hej på dig" and walked over to introduce ourselves.  And at the end of the convo Eduardo invited us over the next day to teach him about the Book of Mormon.  We showed up and he bought herbal tea and was thrilled we came.  He then came to church on Sunday and wrote down everyone's names so he could remember them next time.  As I sat in church on Sunday waiting to get the sacrament I thought about that past 18 months. How many funny, hard, strange and miraculous experiences I have had. There could not be a person on the planet as lucky and blessed and changed as I am.  But I know everyone says that, which just testifies of the goodness of God. No matter where we are at, He gives us what ...

Tjena!  The sun was shining almost every day this week, which made for a happy Syster Helquist.  Here's some fun things that happened /= - Went to the copenhagen temple!  - had splits in lund with my love Syster Welton. So many miracles.       -> one of which was this lesson with a new person we had. He had been taught before but lost contact and then we met him. He's deaf, and we cannot speak Swedish sign language rip so we typeback and forth to eachother at a coffee shop. When he sat down me and Syster Welton just looked at each other and immediately felt the strong love Heavenly Father has for this man. It was so cool to feel.  - learned 3 multipart songs 20 minutes before stake conference. The Malmö ward choir is built different.  - started teaching this cute lady who blows us kisses. That's a first from a Swede haha. AND TO END I got to go visit the places where my ancestors are from. Such a fun day. I would write more but I'm go...

Hejjjjj  We had a wild week, it felt like a total of 2 hours haha. Time makes no sense.  You know what else makes no sense?  Promptings.  Here's a list of promptings I got this week. Story time  1) go talk to the fisherman  -> had a good convo. Had a thought to give them a book of Mormon but unfortunately we had none left with us, went back later and made besties with the polish fisherman who let us hold their fish and said we can come back next week to fish with them and give them copies of the book of mormon in Polish.  2) go meet your living relatives -> had their address but they have no idea I exist haha. So we showed up and he lives in a retirement home and they couldn't let me in or leave a message, so I left with some tears but then they yelled for us to come back and said they could go knock with me... they didn't answer haha. But it was so nice of them to try, meant a lot.  3) sit there  -> met the nicest girl who exci...
