Dear wonderful Family,
We had a fun experience yesterday with one of our members. We had nothing planned for Sunday and by the End of Sacrament meeting we were well taken care of by another family asking, " Onko sinulla ruoka sopimus tänään?" (Do you have a dinner apt. today?) Nope,
Right after church we were heading out to there house to have dinner with them. But the fun part came from what we talked about. We talked about the work here in Finland and the work here in Kerava. and then out of no where both the husband and wife mentioned something that I have never heard before,"Elders, I don't remember the last time I went out with the missionaries. Maybe they didn't want to take me along because I talk to much, but I would love to come out more with you."
and the wife said, "I want to find you more investigators."
We later talked about how as missionaries we are here to help train the memebers to be missionaries and that we can give them the tools to do these things.
This was the tie braker, on our way home our member mentioned that he has wanted to talk to his neighbor about the gospel for a while now. "Do you have a book of Mormon on you?" "Can I have it? I am going to give it to my friend today when she comes over for me to help her with her computer."
We are following up next week with him!
We are in miracle territory. Heavenly Father is moving his work forward. In Utah, Finland, Japan, Penn. and Africa. Every where. What a blessing it is to be in his service. I still feel as if I just got here, but I am coming up to my year mark here in one, two, three days! Time just flies past, We are running out of time to do this work.
I am so blessed to have been born into the family that I have. Everything that I do everyday can be traced back to home. Thank you so much Mom and Dad, for all you do. I had a glimps of what is must be like for you. Mind you, we keep a clean apartment. I make my bed everyday, Mom, you would be proud. I am honored to carry the name of Jesus Christ on my heart and to hold the name of Sandberg. Thank you all for what you do. Keep up the great work.
Love Always,
Vanhin Sandberg
