Oh my my my

This morning for church I went with Allie to Linkoping on the train. It was about a 40 minute ride. It is quite lovely, however I slept for a lot of the ride. We were supposed to do music but the service started at 10 but we were told 11 and didn't get there until 10:35. We thought we were early. After the service we had fika! It's a break in the day where you have bread, butter, cheese, and cucumber and some sort of sweet thing and coffee! It was lovely! :) After that a very nice lady took us to a beautiful Lutheran church. She took us around and told us about the church. She also bought us postcards! :) Allie and I went to a square to get some lunch. We had an AMAZING sandwich, chicken, pineapple, and cheese :) So yum! We met a fellow American who we sat with and talked with. He is doing his schooling in Sweden because it's free here. My dad would like the sound of that :). We went home on the 2:30 train and went to the grocery and went to the Pastor's house because I had to use the restroom and there was not point to walk back to the apartment because we had to be at the church at 4:45 for evening church. Stacy, the pastor's wife, makes homemade, natural lotions, cremes, and chapsticks. So cool! She has a website! We had night church and had communion. The church service is in Swedish so I didn't understand ANYTHING! It was really hard. Please pray that God would still use that time to grow, challenge, and show me his truth. After church we had Open House which is dinner, dessert, and bible study. You can hang out there as long as you wanted. It was a relaxing part of the night.

Tomorrow we have most of the day off and I have my first ballet class tomorrow! :) Excited!

More later!
