New missionaries in the Fall :)

Good morning from the "promised land", Finland :)

Many years Finland has been the happiest country in the world. No wonder, we have a great quality of life and also the best missionaries in the Universe! They have to learn the most difficult language in the world and Swedish, which is a little easier. The missionaries who serve in Jakobstad/Pietarsaari need to learn Swedish. It's easier for English -speakers because it's closer to English.

Elder Stratford who just went home from his mission, served his last transfer in Jakobstad. Now elder Torgensen who also served here in Tampere, is serving in Jakobstad. Lucky them! My parents are excellent at spoiling the missionaries! hahhah. My mom always makes them food.

I don't often cook for the missionaries but sometimes I order for example hamburgers or even sushi!

Being a bonus mom is sometimes a lot. I don't have any missionary calling right now but I have taken it upon me to take good care of the missionaries. It's the best! So many of my original family have gone home, but we still have elder Watson and elder Helske from the "original group". I love them lots.

We have amazing sister missionaries here now! :) Sister Cope is my favorite.

more later! :)

Good times in the last few months

Dear Reader, This past year the missionaries have been really nice and wonderful. A lot of them have gone home and I miss them. The sisters and me have been having a lot of fun, and the elders too of course. :) My dad passed away in November and elder Wood and Smith were in Jakobstad then. Now they are both home. Time flies and the mission always has to end :( But I am happy and hopeful they will come visit Finland again after a while. :) We have had a really wonderful time and I am so grateful for my friends. More later!

Jakobstad and the end

Good evening! Last month I went to Jakobstad to visit my mom and family. I didn't need to teach anyone Swedish anymore, elder Petersson from Sweden is there now. My good old friend elder Schelin is spending his last transfer of his mission in Jakobstad. It is wonderful that he could go back there! He has been a good missionary and I am so proud to know him. I wish him all the best. That's all folks!

Fun days with the missionaries!

Some pictures from the former transfer, and from this new one! Good morning from the Finland Helsinki Mission! (Tampere Zone, Tampere first and second wards) The last group of missionaries, before the recent transfer, was nice but I spent a lot of time in Jakobstad and the missionaries were here of course! :) My laptop is a little messed up, so I will continue later!
