Giggling with Norweigians-Søster Severson's Adventures in Ballerup Denmark July 26, 2021 Week 66

 It has been a good week!!! SUPER BUSY! 

I am now in the area right next to where I was serving for 4 weeks, and am with the crazy talented Sister Scott and we are THRIVING together!! 

We are the tech specialists over the entire mission so we are in charge of the mission Instagram and Facebook pages, making  editing, delegating and scheduling content, giving trainings, literally just everything related to technology. Right now we are beta testing Instagram before the whole mission gets it, so yes if you've seen me on the IG, I'm back ;) buuutttt I won't be responding to DMs and probably all my posts will be in Danish hahah sorry! 

We had a call with all the other tech specialists in Europe and then a private call with Norway to talk about technology work and questions and help we need in our respective countries. It was SO much fun and got us SO hyped. We had the Norwegian elders pray though at the end of the call and Sister Scott and and I could NOT stop laughing because Norwegian is just the most hilarious version of bouncy simplified Danish ahahhaha. 
But yeah this week has been a ton of tech work, we've been down to Frederiksberg (downtown københavn) a whole bunch for pass off lessons. Oh and we got 10 new missionaries!!! They are BABIES and we love them and oh my goodness they are so confused ahaha it's precious.. super weird that some of these elders are going to be here for the next two years dang. 

Spiritual thought: good 'ol C.S. Lewis quote:

"No man knows how bad he is until he has tried very hard to be good. A silly idea is currently that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is. After all, you find out the strength of the German army by fighting it, not by giving in. You find out the strength of the wind by trying to walk against it, not by laying down. A man who gives into temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in." 

Much love as always,
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...
