Varnakonferenssi!

Waiting for our bus!
Moi! Mitä kuuluu?? I hope everyone is doing so amazing this week! 

This weeks is gonna be kinda short again, but hey, we are missionaries on the move :) 

Highlights of this week are:

1) One of our recent converts got married!!!!

2) It decided to be sunny and then randomly snow during the day! Gotta love Finnish weather! 

3) We were able to go to Tampere, a city about an hour and a half away and listen to Brother and Sister Charelson (?) from England for Stake Conference! It was amazing to see everyone come together to feel the spirit and learn more about how we can be better Latter Day Saints! One thing that really stuck out to me was that many of the talks were about being a member missionary. Ever since I became a missionary, I have seen that members are ESSENTIAL to helping move the work forward. I know it can be scary, and we may worry that we could lose relationships. But you have the help of the missionaries! We are here to help you and to be there. Please this week, if you have someone you know that would benefit from learning about the gospel (so....everyone) invite them to a church activity, or to meet with the missionaries in your home. INVITE! :) And I promise that not only will the people you invites knowledge and testimony of our Savior Jesus Christ grow, but your testimony will grow too.

When many of Christs disciples and followers decided to not follow Him, Christ turned to the 12 and asked if any of them would leave too, and Peter said to him (paraphrasing) Where can we go when we know what we know?" 

Where can we go? We can go and share this amazing message of hope and peace!

I love you all and I hope your week is filled with laughter and love.

Rakkaudellani,
