The South

Hej Hej 
Well it looks like you guys all had a good time playing cards. That sounds like so much fun! I miss those times and all of you! You guys always know how to party! I mean I was always the best one at it but what can you do! Well this week went by way fast. On Wednesday I went into Täby to pick up my new comp Syster Lowe (she is just fab) and then we went and picked up a short time missionary who will be here for 6 weeks. Her name is Syster Lövgren(she is also fab). So we are in a tri companionship and it is just a great time teaching the good people about the good word. Syster Lowe is from Ogden Utah and has been out for over more than a year. She goes home with Syter Larson and Syter Clouse. She is super nice and a great missionary. I have been lucky with companions! Syster Lövgren comes from umeå and helps us out with Swedish so much but even she says that it is really hard to understand the people down South. When I first got here it was like I was learning Swedish all over again. What can you do? My brain hurts by the end of the day but I am learning lots of Swedish and speaking more and more so it is all good. The branch here is really small but they are great people! My first member dinner here was with Isam who was recently baptized. He is the nicest member and willing to help out all the missionaries. We have a lot of progressing investigators here and I am so excited to meet with all of them! Life here is just grand and everything is just fab. I love and miss you all. Hope you all have a great Valentines Day! Great day! I got your cards and they made my day. I dont really know if they celebrate valentines day over here but we have Zone Training in Helsingborg so that will be a fun adventure. Just know that I love and miss you all so much. Sorry this is short but this week was kinda wierd because of transferred. Just know I am happy and life is grand!

love emi jane

Sisters

Hej Hej 
Well I cannot believe that January is over! Surprisingly it went by way fast. So mother you guessed right i am being transferred to Kristianstad with Syster Lowe how did you know that? I will look out for that lady you told me about. Not gonna lie I am way nervous but at the same time excited. Apparently they speak differently down there but I hear it is gorge. I am leaving on Wednesday and I am so sad to leave Syster Clouse. I have never laughed so hard. I felt like I was just right at home with her. She would always make fun of my knuckles just like you guys would. She is probably one of the funniest people I know! I am also so sad that I am leaving Handen and Västerhanige they were such great wards but I am excited for the next adventure.

This week we met this guy named Henrick from Sweden. He is a gem! It was one of the best lessons I have been in. The spirit was so strong! He said that when we were talking to him that there was something special about us and that he wanted to change his life. It was just so great. WE also met with Lia again and the lesson was so great. We got a baptismal date with her for Febuary 14 and she said she was gonna come to church. It was a great lesson and she told Syster Clouse and I that it is impossible not to believe when we are teaching her! Unfortunatly we have not seen her since. She kills me!!! But one day one day she will be baptized. 

The other night at a members house (Mary) she gave Syster Clouse and I some lip gloss that looked clear....well we put it on and it was bright red and then she says "The best thing about it is it never really comes off. oj då! Syster Clouse and I also made a fool of ourselves again. We were leaving the store and we walked up to the moving doors and they wouldn't open and we just looked at them for five minuetes and realized that people were going in and out of the other moving doors. We turned around and people were laught at us. What can you do about it? 

Well just know that I love and miss you all so much. I hope you all have the best week because you are the best! Also Dougie you still owe me money from when I cleaned the basement for you! Anywho love you all lots. 

love syster christison
