Gratitude Week-Søster Severson's Adventures in Hope Mills, NC Nov 23, 2020-Week 31

 Hej Alle!! 

This week was incredibly boring so there isn't a ton to report on here, but here are some super basic things I am grateful for!! 

1. Family- love those guys crazy miss the siblings :(( but I love getting to talk to them every week! 
2. Nature- we got to go to the botanical gardens today and it was so amazing just to get out and be in nature!! 
3. Food- especially thanksgiving food... aka the best kind of food, also super grateful for members willing to go out of their way to make sure I have GF food for the holidays
4. The gospel- really can't even compete. I am so grateful for the gospel in my life and for being able to share it as a missionary! I don't know how many times I can say it, the church is true folks. 

Hope everyone can find ways to #givethanks this week!! Remember "it's not happy people who are grateful, its grateful people who are happy!" 

Love you all! Find more ways to be grateful.💕
Søster Severson

One Year Older (And Hopefully Wiser Too?) Søster Severson's Adventures in Sønderborg Denmark, April 19, 2021 Week 52

Image
  Hej med jer!!!  Denne sidste uge tog vi op til København, og det var bare hyggelig.  *(Prepare yourself for way too long of a weekly undskyld)  This last week our district, (our sub group of missionaries so us in Sønderborg, the Frederacia Søstre, and Odense Elders and Sisters) got to go to Copenhagen for the day!!! But tbh the whole week was too much fun. Because of how far away we are, (tak sønderborg) we got to do double sleepovers in Frederacia with Søster Hofmann and Søster Taylor !! So we drove up Monday night, spent the day in Copenhagen, then drove back on Wednesday morning.  Copenhagen was SO much fun. We got to go to the Temple and do baptisms for the dead. It was the first time I've been able to go to the temple since Hawaii and it was a super special experience. Nothing can compare to the overwhelming peace and clarity of being inside a temple. It made me so grateful that I was able to go through so often before my mission, A little sad the temples...

Hurricane Isaias- Søster Severson's Mission Adventures in Fayetteville, NC Week 15

Image
Hej!!!  Not sure exactly when this will get sent out but I am actually writing this on Saturday because on our usual P-day (Monday) we aren't allowed to leave our apartments! Yay Hurricane season!!! Hurricane Isaias is headed our way. Kind of exciting. I didn't get official weather while in Hawaii, but I don't mind a good storm. Either was this 'week' was really good!! It was sad to say goodbye to friends with transfers but I guess that is just part of the miss and now we get to meet and make new friends!!  Facebook has been keeping us super super busy, they have started running ads on our pages which means we get a LOT of crazy incoherent people spamming us but that's how you find the elect I guess ?  We made a list of all the countries around the world we have met/ contacted people from through Facebook. Promises fulfilled that we would be teaching people from around the world!!  Nothing much new to report- little bit jealous of the sisters who jus...

Moving Apartments-Søster Severson's Adventures in Horsens Denmark, May 10, 2021 Week 55

Image
 Hej! Today we moved apartments here in Horsens. We have been packing since 6:30 am this morning, and now I'm tired. Our new apartment is great, and we feel lucky to be here. We've got an amazing view out our window. #blessings. Saturday we had our Zone Conference in Odense, and as usual I loved seeing old friends. We even got to eat lunch as a group. First time for everything. Søster Skousen and I recorded a couple of podcasts, and we'll make those public in a few years. For now, we'll continue to expand our ability to understand the principles of the gospel, and we'll grow our testimonies one discussion at a time. We've got S. English and S. Port helping us with Instagram, and we're excited to keep things moving forward. Miracles have been everywhere this past week. We were teaching a member from the Horsens ward we hadn't seen in a while. Because of CoVid and rules, we met outside in the plaza in front of his apartment building. Just as we were starti...
