So this week, as you guys know it snowed a ton! and I love it :) but the other night, it was some of the BEST snowball snow I have ever seen. So obviously, as soon as we got out of class which is at 21:30 everyone rushed outside and had a massive snowball fight! It was grand. People were slipping and getting tackled in the snow keep in mind everyone is in shirt and tie and dresses. haha it was a blast. ( and no mom I wasn't wearing my new suit, don't worry)
Sister Oscarson, the General Young Women's President, was at our Tuesday Devotional! She is so awesome! Whenever anyone comes to speak to us, they all give a shoutout to where they served. So her husband served 3 missions in Sweden and She served 2! So cool! So at the beginning of her talk she said,"Where are the Swedes at?" and we were literally sitting on the front row, we all raised our hands and felt special for like 10 seconds. It was fun :) Then after we went up and shook her hand and spoke a bit of Swedish! But she talked how we can get the most out of our missions and I really enjoyed it and learned a lot! :) All the visitors we have here are super awesome :)
During my personal study, I set a goal for myself to finish the Book of Mormon before I get to Sweden! In order to do that, I have to read 8 chapters a day, while getting the most out of it I can! Its a pretty hefty goal, but I think I can do it. This week, I was reading in 2 Nephi in Chapter 9 verse 45 and it reads " O, my beloved brethren, turn away from your sins; shake of the chains of him that bind you fast; come unto God who is the rock of your salvation." I love that so much! It is so true! No matter what you have done in the past, you can ALWAYS be forgiven. My new favorite Hymn in number 243, Let us all press on. I invite you all to read and ponder the words of that song. It is seriously the best message!
Love you all and hope you have a great week!
Godspeed!
Love,
