"That Sounded Like a Curse to Me!" Søster Severson's Mission Adventures Week 17 Fayetteville, NC

This week was an experience, I can't even remember when it began but it's been one. 


Highlight #1 
Spontaneous hike when service feel through. Turns out there is a like 4-wheeler dirt pit / trail right near our apartment that had some super cute train tracks- we were quite sweaty but it was 10/10 fun. 

Highlight #2 
Calling Krista!! Also a low light because we really gotta pass her off to her local Elders now. But she is so awesome and has such a deep understanding of the gospel already that we trust that she will be more than fine. 

Highlight #3 
We called out friend Josh who we have been trying to teach for a while but hasn't been that interested. But we called him and prayed with him and Sister Butler promised MAD blessings. I think he just stared at us while we prayed and then afterward he just goes "... that... sounded like a curse..." nah Josh that's just the Spirit. 

For my spiritual thought for this blog I just wanted to say that I love being a missionary. It is really really hard and awkward sometimes. But every day I feel the assurance that this is the absolute most important and meaningful thing that I could be doing with my life right now. Living the gospel brings blessings and following Jesus Christ brings more peace than anything else. I love being able to share that joy with others.

🇩🇰 MTC week 4 "Søpapegøje"

Image
Hvordan har I det?       This week flew by just like the MTC has ahhh! I have less than two weeks left! Ah how did that happen?! Yes I got reassigned this week, and I am going to Raleigh North Carolina leaving June 18th!!!  My stake president called in the middle of one of my classes so we talked for like thirty seconds and that's all the information I got (I think it was all the information he had lol). Nothing new on my missionary portal- no email, not 100% sure what I am supposed to do next either.       If you know anyone reassigned there or who served there let me know!! I am mostly just excited I get to go to the South. (ok so its like northern southern but like I think it counts)... When I heard I had been reassigned to North Carolina I was just kind of like "yep that's where I need to go. lets do it".  S øster Clark also got reassigned but to Yakima Washington (leaving July 14th) on the other side of the country, I am super exc...

Primary & Youth of the Moraga Ward Announcements-Søster Severson's Adventures in Sønderborg Denmark, March 1, 2021 Week 45

 This past week I was asked to create a video of my companion and I singing "I want to be a missionary now" in Danish. My Mom said the kids had a blast tapping their sticks to the music. I guess it's my first primary music video. lol This next one is my advice to the youth of the Moraga ward. I think it's for the 16 year old class? I guess I've learned a lot over these past few years. Sorry kids, the high school years are rough. But there is always hope and faith that God has a plan for each of us. I testify He loves us more than we know. Love Søster Severson

Intermission week 1

      Wow these past few days have felt so unstructured compared to the MTC- But I forget how much I need recharge time so it has been good to be able to find new ways to fill the time.       Our last few days in the MTC were kind of crazy- we had a teaching appointment like everyday and we said goodbye to our teachers way too quickly. Part of me felt like 'yes ok I am ready to be done with this', but the other part was like 'ahhh wait I still understand nothing and can't say anything waittt'! Getting released was also weird too, mostly just because I thought I would feel different but I felt the exact same and I was like ahh I feel guilty watching netflix I'm a missionary, wait no I'm not... why do I still feel guilty? Luckily that passed and I just feel calm now.       I don't think I realized how much pressure and anxiety I was putting on myself to be perfect and to be the best missionary right now . It is funny because som...
