October 11th letter

The Elders were having a little fun today. They had a zone activity in Helsingborg where they played American football (two hand touch). Elder Arko has missed playing that a LOT! Then, they played ultimate frisbee which was awesome as well :)

Elder Arko had a really fun experience that isn't so missionary related, but really fun, so he must share. One of their investigators told us they were going to make Kropp kakor. These things are about the size of a baseball and are made with bacon in the middle and a covering of mashed potatoes and shredded potatoes. You boil them until they floate and then eat them with lingonberries. Elder Arko knows that doesn't sound like it works, but it does.

The Elders have decided to start teaching English and Swedish classes once a week (for free) to attract people to the church. So, they will start that this Wednesday and hopefully it will be a success. They also have a religion class coming up at the local high school that Elder Arko is a little nervous for. They will have about a half hour presentation and then Q and A for a little bit so he hopes it goes well.

Other than that Elder Arko is just having fun being a missionary. They've been having some really good spiritual experiences lately and are working really hard.
