Week 70

God fortsättning!! 

Wednesday we met the elders at the church to get some new languages of the Book of Mormon because our supply is so low, and one of the ones we asked for was in Tagalog, which I had never seen before but then had in my backpack all day. 

At the library I went up and talked to this sweet mom with her son and she was like "I'm from Thailand." And we pulled out the book in her native tongue and she was like woahhhhh. So we talked to her about it and she was really excited to read it. Really cool.

We had splits in Stockholm!!

On the way home I saw this cute girl saying goodbye to her dad as she boarded the train. I made some small talk with her and then we started walking towards the same car, so I thought "Heavenly Father, please help me sit with her." And I did! So I prayed to be able to talk with her about the gospel, and it came! 

This 14 year-old told me about how she had recently started going to church by herself, and she didn't really know if she believed in God or not. So I got share with her how I found my belief (after we talked about Macklemore, of course). We talked for a few hours, we're besties now, God hears prayers.

And she lives in our area :) can't wait to see her again !! 

Bullet points:

- rats ran in front of us while running early one morning 

- our food waste trash can filled to the top with water 

- our bishop said the word "fetch"

- bought movie theater popcorn 

- celebrated the new year by watching fireworks for 2 minutes and then going to bed 

- got to see Olivia again :') so happy 

I love being a missionary, I'm so thankful. 

Love you all!
