Tja!
This week was so much fun. We were constantly running from
one thing to another. What a crazy week.
It started out with Tuesday which was Elder Dumas' birthday!
We celebrated by playing innebandy with the primary kids again which was a
blast. There were a couple more kids who actually could play and they were just
making fools out of Elder Dumas and I. Then our bishop showed up and gave us
ice cream, protein shakes, and some incredible vegetarian burritos and then
made everyone sing happy birthday to Elder Dumas. Twice. It was so fun.
President came by to hold our transfer-ly interviews. He
told us that he doesn't even know why he came all the way here because judging
by the updates we give him every week, we're doing a-okay. He took the
opportunity to give us some great wisdom though. He's so wise. I hope I learn
how to listen to the Spirit and receive inspiration like he does.
A member we're really tight with named Örjan got his first
modeling job ever and asked us to swing by his fashion show for like 20 mintues
which was in large mall in town. We should up and it was so much fun. Elder
Dumas and I loved looking at and critiquing the new lines of fall fashion.
Örjan was the best part of the whole thing. He was killing it up there! What a
beautiful bewhiskered man.
On the spårvagn the other day, I noticed a tall Chinese man
that I thought I recognized. I said hi to him and turns out I did recognize
him! He and his girlfriend were inactive members in Karlskrona when I was there
and they both had moved here to Gothenburg! We got his number and are going to
meet him with them this week. God's plan is so incredible and unfathomable. His
hand is in everything and He is constantly preparing people to be put in the
places in which they need to be.
There have been so many times on my mission where I've been
disappointed because things didn't go like they were so supposed to or I
thought we had a made a mistake in going or not going someplace only to find
out that God needed us there to talk to someone. I can't even number the amount
of times here in Gothenburg alone that we've missed our bus or spårvagn only to
end up running into someone we knew that we had lost contact. God's thoughts
are not our thoughts. We just need to humble ourselves and let Him lead us.
Have a great week!
Love,
Äldste Cummings

was so adorable.
4. Elder Dumas and I got a little inspiration from the fashion show. Apparently it's "in" now tuck in one side of your jacket and let the other shoulder fall off. It's fashion.
