So this will be a shorter email since the other computer isn't working so I'm trying to finish quick so Elder Dean can email.
This week was good! On P-day we went to visit a few islands in the archipelago by Göteborg. Most of them are very rocky with some smallish trees, but we were there kinda around sunset so it was pretty cool. It took a lot more time than I had anticipated.
The other big news of the week was that we did companion exchanges on Wednesday. It's the first time we've done real exchanges since I came to Alingsås, like 4 months ago. I went to an area called Utby near Göteborg, so it was fun to be in an area that is in the city.
This week we had the most effective tracting experience of my life, haha. We tried doing a few swingbys but no one was home so we decided to tract. The first door no one answered, but the second door was a guy from Congo who let us in and we taught him about the Restoration! So that was a pretty cool experience.
This week as a district we have been reading the talk "Where Justice, Love, and Mercy Meet" by Elder Holland from April 2015 conference, and it is about the Atonement. Yesterday we had a super good sarament meeting where the theme was brotherhood, and one of the speakers talked about Christ's brotherly love for us, that He suffered all of our pain and even died for us. I am so grateful for the Atonement and for the gospel, that we have the gift of the ability to return to our Father in Heaven when we do what is right.
I hope everyone has a great week!
