Almost Spring: 2/15/16



Hej!

     This week was pretty good. On Monday we went to Göteborg, but no one really planned anything so we just hung out with other missionaries in the YSA center.
     In the beginning of this week it was pretty sunny, but cold. Then we had one day that was actually kinda warm almost, so everyone was talking about how it's starting to turn into Springtime. And then, the next day we got about two inches of snow, haha. The sun is out again though so it's still good :)
     On Thursday we had a specialized zone training in Göteborg. President and Sister Beckstrand came down from Stockholm. We talked about working with members and a few other things. Then after lunch we did a sort of family home evening. We passed around a bowl of M&Ms and everyone took a handful. Then we went around and everyone had to say one thing about themselves that no one else knows for each brown M&M they had. Some people had one or two, and others had 20, so it was interesting, haha. It was a fun way to end zone training.
     A cool experience this week was that on Saturday Elder Dean and I had just done a swing by, and were walking to town, but we took a different way than how we usually walk there. As we were walking a woman at a parked car near by waved us over. It turned out she was a member from a nearby town on her way to the baptism of an 8 year-old in our ward, and she couldn't find the chapel. So we gave her directions and she left. I think it is amazing how even without realizing it, sometimes we can be led by the Lord to help people, or to receive help. We almost never walk that way to town, but we just happened to be there at the exact same time as the member.

I hope everyone has a great week!

Pictures!
1) Well this is super boring but I only have one picture to attach this week! This is my rubiks cube, after I discovered that I could take off the pieces. I managed to put it back together later luckily.
