Well this week was great... on Monday we got to go to a Viking burial ground (pictures will follow) which was super cool... The huge rocks were where they built their ships.
On Tuesday We spent most of the day in Enköping, a small town in our area... we met with two professional rugby players (one of them is a member) and taught the restoration... afterwards they let us use their bikes to ride around town and visit less actives.
later in the day we ended up trackting into a pretty positive kid named Felix who was really interested in the book of Mormon, when we gave him one you could see the excitment and he said that he really felt like he would find some answers, I hope he does.
Later that evening, we got to go to David and Ida's apartment for a lesson, dinner and phase ten... they have the missionaries over EVERY Tuesday. They are both super nice and they come to church every week even though Ida's not a member.
Other highlights of this week:
Daniel who we have been teaching and who is planning on getting baptized on the 19th of April bought us these super nice shirts (pictures will follow) we kept telling him not to but he did anyways... not only that be he brings food for us every time we have a lesson.
We found out that one of our other investigators is an MMA fighter and he has never lost a fight. He is half Phillipino and half Swedish, super nice guy and he speaks English with us.
We met this old guy sitting out and we contacted him and asked him if we could meet sometime... he said sure... it turnes out he's from turkey and has lived here since 1991 but he still doesent understand very much Swedish and no English, as we were teaching him, he pulled a Turkish book of Mormon out of his cubboard and told us that he got it from a missionary. He also said that he read a little and liked it. It is super hard because there is such a launguage barrier, but I think that there is some potential.
I wish I could tell you guys all the awesome things that are going on here, but I will just have to save it for another time.
Love you all,
