Greetings!
Another fantastic week in Växjö, Sweden...
We were able to visit three returning members in our branch this week! Elder Buckley and I have been trying to reach out to less active members over the whole transfer, and this week things really worked out. We were able to have really good, uplifting meetings with these three people. It was great to meet them and I think that they are on their way back to the safety of the fold.
Yesterday was a Sunday of miracles! After our branch council, we were able to visit one of the returning member with a member of the branch presidency. After that, we walked to a bus stop on our way to our next appointment but we saw that we had missed the bus! And another one wasn't coming for 25 minutes! While we were trying to decide what to do instead, we saw a man walking up to us who we recognized. It was a referral that we received about a month ago, the one that lives pretty far away from Växjö. He was here in town on a visit and we just "happened" to run in to each other at the most random bus stop ever. It was his last day in Växjö yesterday before his 48 hour travel to New Zealand. We had a great conversation with him and were able to follow up with the Book of Mormon that we left with him on the last visit.
It was so amazing to see him and to know that the Lord had better plans for us than taking that bus. Also at that bus stop, we met two families that had just finished going to a service at a local church. They were thrilled to talk to us and even said that they would love to visit our church service next Sunday! I pray that they will come.
I hope that you have all had wonderful weeks.
Love,
