This week we got to meet our new mission president, President Youngberg! He is amazing, such an awesome person who is very guided by the spirit. He took his wife on their first date Saturdaynight and proposed the next  Monday, married two months later.. Fast forward 35(?) years and he's got tons of kids all of which are married, most of which have kids of their own. Goals.

But really though, he's awesome. He reminds me a bit of President Taylor mixed with Brother Kelly, and as you members of the MV5 ward can imagine, it's a good mix. 

Also this week I gave a talk about the Holy Ghost at a baptism so I think I will write down some thoughts about the Holy Ghost. But first, watch the Mormon Message "The Music of the Gospel". You see, I really like the analogy that Elder Andersen gives us. The Dance of the Gospel is the things we do, the Music of the Gospel is the feelings we get from the Holy Ghost confirming what we do to be right. Doing the Dance with out hearing the Music doesn't really work, and your sensitivity to the Music will decrease if you stop dancing. Also, the Lord has commanded us to be a peculiar people (Deuteronomy 14:2) and that means that we have to dance the Dance even when the people around aren't. Have you ever seen someone pull up next to you at a stop light and they're dancing and singing to some music but you cannot hear it? It looks strange and peculiar, just as some people may think we are strange and peculiar for doing the Dance of the Gospel when they themselves cannot hear the Music of the Gospel. As such, rather then stopping the Dance to be like them we need to help our fellow men hear the Music so they can dance too. And what does one do to hear the Music? For that question I turn to my favorite Mormon Message,The Voice of the Spirit. I'll leave the question without answer though and leave it to y'all to find out how we can hear the Music of the Gospel.Other then that, this week was great! I got a nice Valentine from my biggest fan Lennart. Celebrte the 4th with an American Family, and forgot to take any pictures with President Youngberg.

Ha det bra!
