Cycling Through the City of Cary! Søster Severson's Adventures in Cary, NC Dec 8, 2020 Week 33

 Wow has it been a week!! I got transferred and am now just outside of Apex in Cary which is super awesome!! It reminds me of my home ward so it's like the twilight zone serving in Moraga/Cary. 

BUT it is super fun and super cool. Only slightly intimidating to go from the boonies of mission to the heart of it with all the big shot leadership people like uhhh hi sorry I dont know what I'm doing here either. I was also asked to be a facebook admin again which means we are over like the APs and Tech Specialists and Office Elders so we get to boss them around when it comes to Facebook. But honestly Facebook admining is a lot of fun, only slightly extra stressful. 
I am in a trio right now because Sister Burnham is going home in six days so I was brought in to help finish Sister Burrell's training (which is funny because shes been out a week longer than me but shes a historic site Sister so she hasnt finished training yet, she is also going to take over admining whenever I leave). But the best is that we also live with the Hermanas in our district which is SO fun going from living with one other Sister to four. It's like a sorority house but Sister Clyde and Wells are the best!
Also because our area is like 8miles across we are a full BIKE area (which is a lot of fun because it's super hilly and I havent ridden a bike in like years lol) But I think it's good training for Denmark because I know they bike a lot there. 

Spiritual thought for the week comes from the Living Christ, we were challenged to memorize part of it and this was my favorite section from the part we had to memorize: 

"And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives!"

I love this reminder that the most important part of the birth of Christ is the fact that he still lives. His suffering, death, and resurrection are what give us the chance to live again. What better testimony can we share this Christmas season than the simple testimony and declaration that we know He Lives!

Love you all and hope everyone is enjoying this Christmas season!! Remember to #LightTheWorld

🇩🇰 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...
