Week 63

Tjena hej!!

This week was absolutely FIRE 

Äldste Holland came all the way to Sweden to absolutely change our lives. SO incredible. 

After we listened to him we went to the temple as a whole mission, and as the temple matron put it - "the temple was full, and it wasn't just missionaries."

75% of all the missionaries here have ancestors who come from Sweden, and the majority of us did some temple work for our ancestors. What a powerful memory. 

A note about Äldste Holland - HE'S FIREY AND FUNNY. He said the phrase "let's duke it out in the parking lot." Lol.

Takeaways: use the bom. #FACTS

We made a goal to use the Book of Mormon as much as possible, basically to drown the public in it haha, and we saw ~miracles~ !!

One of them // we got in contact with an inactive member and after we showed her our copies of the book of mormon and shared out testimonies she said "maybe that's why I fell away, I never had a string enough testimony of it. I would like to take the lessons again and start reading it with you."

ONE OTHA THING !!!

During every lesson I show my copy of the Book of Mormon where I read through and marked every time Jesus Christ was mentioned. Ya wanna know how many I counted??

2,137 (!!!)

I thought I did pretty good, I was marking multiple times on every page, at one point I got so tired of it haha. 

So then I googled it to see how many times it really was, and it was more than 6,000. 

Literally crazy.

Other crazy thing // got kissed on the cheek by a man while street contacting. Wild. 

Love you all!
