Tears were shed saying goodbye to Syster Chandler. My real homie g heading to the coveted land of Örebro... gonna miss that girl. 

#she'stherealhardestworkerintheroom

Wild things are happening in Gubbängen, just in time to throw my cute new greenie into the middle. She's amazing and sounds like she's been here for weeks. Only downside are that she doesn't like tomatoes... but I'll fix that ;) 

Today's email is just going to be funny things and maybe like 1 spiritual thing tehe. Buckle up!

On our way to church I was helping Syster Lauder translate her testimony (which she shared like a boss in church) and noticed this lady sitting near us. She had a suitcase with a grocery bag sitting on top. The brakes on the train were slightly tapped and the bag fell to the floor, exposing her cans of beer. And lucky us, one fell on the exact right place to pop open and start spraying, while rolling down the train at exponential speeds, spewing beer at everyone I'm yhr process. Watching a flying spraying beer can really made me giggle.

While looking out the window of the church during a wonderful lesson, we saw a lady pop a squat right next to the church. Rip.

We tried to get contact with a non active member yesterday, and while walking in a nice guy held the door open for us, and I immediately knew we had to talk to him. So after leaving some cookies and a note we knocked on this guy's door. He answers and in Swedish I say "I know this is a little weird, but I had a feeling while you held the door open for us to ask if you believed in Jesus Christ." I had out contact card in hand, knowing we had to head out quick to catch the train. He grabbed the card and said "I don't know, we can see if he lives here" AND STARTS WALKING DOWN TO THE LIST TO SEE IF HE LIVES THERE and I'm like uh sir I I talking about God's son. And he was like OOHH. so funny.

All of our friends are still doing really well, it's amazing to watch the gospel provide immediate joy! It's real and so so true. I love that knowledge and I love my Savior Jesus Christ.

Mvh,
