Week 25

Hejsan!

This week I have gone through the 5 stages of grief, set SMART goals, used excel, fight or flight, everyday.

Crazy crazy week!

But with many tender mercies :')

We took Susanne on a walk around the temple this week! We all met on the train and had an awesome conversation about prayer and how it's helping her right now, and then we did a really beautiful nature walk around the temple. We got to the end and the spirit was there, but nothing crazy happened, no new understandings for her or commitments wanting to be made.

At least that's what I thought

On the train ride back she said "I have not felt a power like that at any point in my life. It's a goal for me to go there."

WHAT

What a powerful thing the temple is, I'm glad Susanne could recognize it!

Side note - 3 men over the age of 40 wanted to talk to me and Sister Chandler about marriage... in the same day?? Help????

We have our sports night this week and right as we walked up to the building the ~power went out~ and we ended up playing sharks and minnows for 2 hours. I felt speedy.

OKAY AND A MIRACLE FROM TODAY:

The following things factored into this happening-

- we went on a run

- we decided to take a different route

- we got paid so decided to get groceries

- we remembered to wear our nametags while running

While checking our groceries out this man comes up to us and starts asking us who we are and what we belive in.

So just like that, sweaty and standing by a trash can in Willy's, we taught the restoration.

(And I was like is this what it's like to serve in South America?)

At the end he says "I didn't know why, but I knew I had to talk to you guys. I can see you have something that I want."

And to close I wanted to say that we met a lady yesterday who said she believes in 2 things, Santa Clause and angels.

Xoxo,
