To Stay/Become Patient ❤🇩🇰 Søster Severson's Adventures in Hope Mills, NC Oct 12, 2020 Week 25

 Hej Alle!! 

Hope everyone has had an awesome week!! Not a ton to report on, we had a pretty low key week until this weekend when our car broke down. Sad day. 
We had the Elders come and jump it and then we drove to the car place, and were there for a few hours until they told us they had to order a new battery and they had to keep it over night. So we started walking home only to get #caught by one of our stake presidency members who was absolutely appalled that we would even consider walking home so him and his wife picked us up and got us thai food #blessings. 
We also survived transfers!! Sister Wing and I are sticking together here in Hope Mills for another seven weeks. Because things got so shaken up last transfer pretty much everyone is staying put for now, which we are fine with. 
We have also met some super sweet members and had to say goodbye to some of our favourites. It's weird serving around so many young military families because they come and go so fast and it's so hard to see them go!! 
Most tragic thing that happened this week was I lost the English tag I got eight days ago... smh Heavenly Father just knows how much I want to be speaking danish. 

Spiritual thought / cool danish fact: 
The word for "become" in Danish is "blive" but it is also the word for "stay". I realized how ironic it was when I was praying for patience this week to hear about transfers and said "jeg bede dig om at du vil hjælpe mig blive tålmodig" guess I need to both stay/become patient! But I liked that because sometimes we need to renew our commitment to things we are already doing. Even when we are patient/kind/loving we can always work on becoming more of whatever we already are.

🇩🇰 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...
