Sister Cooper and I took a train down to Pasila in Helsinki area last Tuesday 11/22 and the train lasted from 1430-2030.
It was a fun, long ride. Once we got to Pasila we got on a commuter train that
took us to Haaga. I was very grateful that I had just served there and could
navigate well because we had all her luggage, my suitcase, and a bike. But it
was fun! It was super weird getting off the train in Haaga because it felt like
I had only been gone for a week and then come back home. I was way excited for
Sister Cooper to serve in Haaga. We got to the apartment and it was so so, so
fun to see Sister Nelson and to catch up with her and laugh at all the old
jokes anew. I spent the night there in my old apartment and then in the morning
Sister Nelson and I left Sister Cooper and Sister Capps (so sad) to travel by
train and bus to the mission home. Sister Nelson is shot gun training an
area in Turku so we had all of her luggage as well. It felt like old times
taking the buses and trains together. Then at the mission home we had our
meeting and then got our new companions. I was beyond blessed to get Sister
Cain as my new companion! She is from St. George, and I’m pretty sure that she
is training me. We are the same age and she went to Desert Hills High School so
we bonded over a hate of the 'warrior nation' cheer ;) She has one year of
school done in the piano program at BYU. She is amazing and so prepared and
very good at Finnish. We have a lot of fun together and I feel so blessed to
have her as my companion.
