Missionaries are the BEST!

Good morning from Finland! :)

So, I have been very blessed by knowing a lot of missionaries, past and present. A lady at the stake conference said (when I was saying hello to most of the missionaries arriving to the conference) "You know a lot of missionaries!" Yes, I guess I do! And they know me... I am so happy to be their friend.

We have had some really nice missionaries during my life here on Earth. For example elder Rubinstein from Australia, elder Kuntz from Denmark and elder Flynn from Manchester (England). Elder Flynn is serving here now. They all have served both in Jakobstad and Tammefors. So they have met my parents and have seen my hometown. It is special.

It's soon time to say goodbye to the Cardons... They have been here two years and I started calling them "Grandma" and "Grandpa" even though I am old enough to be their daughter lol. But they are happy with being my grandparents, I hope and think.

Elder Watson is also going home soon.

Yesterday I went to game night and elder Standage and elder Wood brought me there and back again in my wheelchair. It is so fun to go with them, it is also an environment friendly way to get around! :D We take the tram and it's free for me!

I am looking forward to traveling to Utah sometime this year. It will be so good. My mom is coming with me. We are planning a reunion at the Cardon's. It will be so fun! I am happy to have so many friends in Utah.

More larter!

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!
