Ler and Waseem

This week went by really fast and I cannot believe that it is Monday. So we had a great week and we met some great people named Miriam and Ler. Mirium is from Peru and had a baby about 8 months ago. She is very interested and said she is going to bring her husband next time. Ler is from Russia and we met her through her boyfriend. We contacted her boyfriend, Waseem, the first week I got here and taught him. One night we got a text from Ler (the girlfriend) saying some interesting words to us.  So we decided we should probably stop teaching Waseem. Then six weeks later we ran into Waseem again and he said that he would like to learn more and that he would bring his girlfriend. She is very sweet and was interested in the church once we explained what we do as missionaries.

So this week when I thought my Swedish was getting better I realized that I was contacting people with a Norwegian Book of Mormon. I didnt realize it until I went to share a scripture with someone and it looked different. Whoops! 

Syster larson and I are really good at inviting ourselves over to peoples houses for parties. It really is a good idea though because we talk to their friends who are the party about the gospel. So we went to a gathering this week for a member who just got home from her mission in Estonia. We talked with a few of her friends who were really interested in what we do as missionaries and want to come to church. So that was exciting for us. 

Well I hope you all have a great week and a Happy Thanksgiving day! I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo greatful for all of you. I hope Dougie has a great birthday! There are some great girls here in sweden that come home soon.
Anyways love you all so much and hope you have a fantastic week! 

Love Emi Jane
