1 week, 2 areas, 3 companions-Søster Severson's Adventures in Sønderborg Denmark, Feb 8, 2021 Week 42

 Hej med jer!!! 

It has been a fantastisk, sindssygt week her in Den Danske Mission! 9 of our missing missionaries arrived!! Wooohooo!!! We pray every night that Søster Murphy  Murri, Williams, Taylor, og Scott and Ældste Croft can all make it here soon!! #forstærkninger 
This week was a lot of fun though. I had to say goodbye to Søster Carter so she could go be our #sisterAP up with Sørensen. Sad day. But I was with Søster Paras (yes pronounced exactly like Paris, someone on the street said it must be destiny we were together)!!! She is the oldest sister in the mission and has beautiful Danish which was the biggest help ever! 
We spent the first half of the week here in Sønderborg in the freezing cold. We got mad snow here so tracting in a blizzard got me feeling like a hard core old time missionary. I think it was the fact that no one wanted to talk to us too... butttt then we headed down to Nykøbing Falster because Sister Paras is opening it as a sister area and it was so sick!! I would love to serve down there. Took way to many pictures #oops. The Danish was also for sure way easier to understand too, sorry sønderjysk you will always have my heart but you're a beast to learn. 
After a few days in Nykøbing we took back up to København to pick up the new sisters!!! And I am with SØSTER ENGELSK!!! I called it a couple weeks ago but somehow I just new Sister English would be joining me here in Sønderborg so I am over the moon. She is a super obedient, super diligent missionary, and she has beautiful Danish already and knows wayyy more vocab and grammar than me so #blessings. We are planning on hitting it way hard with the dansk this transfer and I am way excited!!! 
Besides that, we are just chillin in quarantine like bosses for the next 6 days. 

One thing that I love from this weeks Come Follow Me was the story of Martin Harris losing the 116 pages. The Lord knew that Joseph and Martin would mess up and he had prepared a plan of mercy. He had instructed Nephi to make and keep additional records, and even though the Lord did not provide an explanation- he was obedient. Likewise, when we were sent to earth the Lord knew we would mess up. He prepared the ultimate plan of mercy for all of us. Through the obedience of Jesus Christ its is ok the we aren't perfect. God always provides a plan of mercy to all his children, no matter their choices or their circumstances. 

Love you all!! Please keep sending me updates I love hearing how everyone is doing!! 
Søster Severson

🇩🇰 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...
