Elder Arko: June 21st letter

This has been another fun filled week for Elder Arko. There was a little non-transfer related traveling to arrange which was a bit of a curve ball for the office Elders. They also went out with the home teachers to two or three teaches and they went very well. They also placed their mission's Book of Mormon order. Elder Arko is a really good secretary. He's had quite a bit of practice since he's been a secretary in nearly every stage of of his life. And yes, he knows he's got the legs for it :)

They also had a Birthday in the office this past week. Sister Lundquist's birthday was on Friday so they had a little celebration. Elder Arko and Elder Blaylock and made a Kladdkaka for desert at her birthday lunch. Then, after a little office work the Elders got to head into Stockholm to meet up with an investigator. The investigator is from Karlskrona and in Stockholm for a visit so it was a perfect opportunity to meet up with them.

Saturday was a very big day for Sweden as Crowned Princess Victoria was married! If you think a regular wedding is trouble to plan, imagine when a Princess gets married and the WHOLE NATION is involved, eh? They were able to watch a small part of it on TV because it was a "Cultural Event" and apparently 95% of Swedes were tuned into it so it kinda put a damper on going out and trying to find people to teach. Here are a few pictures of them watching the big event.
