Week 59

Hej på er!

We had 2 sets of AMAZING splits with the Malmö and Norrland stls this week, so we're rocking with a Wednesday pday yay!! 

So much has happened this week. 

We decided to make a post on Facebook and offer to go and pick peoples apples and it worked like a charm. We spent part of our day Saturday picking apples and getting to know people om the beautiful Island of Ekerö - and we just knew a miracle would come, and it did! The rain stopped just before we visited the last house on our list, and their cousins are members of the church! We had a wonderful conversation with them, and I found my dream place to live. 

(Side note, we now have 1,000 apples HELP)

On splits yesterday we headed out around lunch time to catch the bus to a lesson, and we waved and said hi to the first person we saw, and she immediately said "you guys are so kind, why?" We told her about our hope in Christ, her sister has met the missionaries before, and we walked and talked with her for 30 minutes. It was really touching. 

Last week we watched one of the strongest members I've seen travel over an hour to make dinner for Olivia. After having the previous days stayed with another sister to help her out, and had gotten her phone stolen. I really belive that the countenance of God was in her countenance (Alma 5). I am so thankful for the wonderful examples of faith hope and charity I am surrounded with.

Our friend Olivia is getting baptized this Sunday, please keep her in your prayers! 

(Side note #2, I now have a name tag with my name in the Swedish way... HELLQVIST)

Älskar er!
