Another really good week this week! A lot of things going on here in Stockholm. But first things first, IT IS GETTING WARMER HERE!!! This weekend it got up to 15 degrees! Pretty nice. :) as other highlights this week, we got a good amount of finding time. Got to talk to a lot of Americans! Even bought some goodies at the American store. :) We met with some of our amazing investigators, we had an interview with the mission president, we also tried to do a contacting game that failed. Hahah We did a compliment train type thing, but apparently people don't like compliments. Lol! We had a few member meals! And went on exchanges with the office elders! So yeah pretty busy week this week! :) but that's how we like it!
Cool news!! We found out yesterday that Elder Renlund of the Quorum of the 12 Apostles will be visiting Sweden! Which is pretty cool because he grew up here! :) he will be having a fireside with the Stockholm and Stockholm south stakes. So we are pretty excited about it! He also told President Youngberg that he wants to meet with the missionaries while he is here, so we will be having a special conference with him the day after the fireside! So that will be really cool. :)
This week, we were out on the streets contacting and we saw this group of college aged kids out with a bunch of traveling gear and American flags draped over them and their bags and such, so I walked up and said "are y'all Americans?!" And they were like heck yeah! But we're in a hurry we need to get to the train station. We are in a competition and we have no phone and no money and we need to get to Amsterdam! Super random, but we helped them and sent them on their way. Then like 5 minutes later we talked to this other American that loves baseball! He is the head guy over all baseball here in Sweden! So that was super cool. I was able to get my American fix. Man, I love that place. :) #GodBlessAmerica
As a spiritual thought, I thought to share a story from the Book of Mormon that I love. Elder Bednar talked about it in his conference talk. But it is the story of Pahoran! If you aren't familiar with the he story, it's in Alma 60-62. But I love how Pahoran, even though Moroni has some choice words to say to him and was criticizing him, he wasn't mad! He had the choice! Its our choice to be offended. So I want to invite you all to remember that this week. :) When you think to be mad, be glad!
I hope you all have a wonderful week! Love you all tonsssss! As always, KEEP THE FAITH!
Much love,
Elder Baggett
