The Easter "chicken" came to the Mission Office. Our daffodils in pots are starting to bloom.
These cardboard Easter eggs come in various sizes. This isn't even the largest ones! Children are given new spring clothes in some of the huge ones as a surprise at Easter.
Baptism at Gubbangen Chapel (11 Apr 2009) was for young single adult, Myangaabaatar Badarch (center). The Wrights, Lewises, Mission elders and ward friends were in attendance.
Christian Johansson (center in white and green T) was baptised on 11 Apr 2009 in Uppsala. Couple Roger & Delia Larson, along with the Biskop and Ward friends supported Elders Herr and Wood with the special day.
Karlssons surpised us with an Easter visit. Elder Dawson, along with couples Wright, Lewis and Johnson were delighted to see them.
The little crocuses bloomed at the bottom of the Mission Office steps. We are so excited to see the real evidence that Spring will be here to stay. Besides the Mission Office work and being companions with Elder Dawson, our other "excitement" for the week was a suprise visit from our former Mission President and his wife (Jan Åke & Bente Karlsson), right after Friday lunch was over. We took another photo on the steps and bid them good-bye once again. Their son, Tobias, wife Anna-Linda and baby Oskar, are in our Täby Ward, so we are happy they come back to Stockholm frequently.
Saturday, we traveled to two baptisms in the Mission. Christian Johansson was baptised in Uppsala (Elders Herr & Wood) and, young single adult, Myangaabaatar Badarch from Mongolia was baptised in Gubbangen (Elders Jackson & Abalos). We were so happy to be in attendance.
Our Easter was complete with investigator Else Marie attending church with us and having Sunday dinner with President and Sister Anderson at the Mission Home. It is a beautiful day in Sweden!
