Hello people,
Happy Swedish mothers day to you!
This has been a good week, just doing the work of the Lord.
I've got no time today. I'm sorry I say that every week and that I'm gonna write more the next week and then I don't. Sorry. I got a new companion though. That's the biggest news for the week. Elder Michael Richardson from Ogden, UT. He's a great guy. It's gonna be a really good companionship.
Anyway, have a great week!
Elder Heiner

Goodbye to Salty Halty!

Hello people of the world that read this. I had a good week, I hope you did too. We did a thing this week called Beast Week where the zone just went super hard and talked to a ton of people. It was fun. We broke the record for all time contacting done in a week by a zone. That was pretty cool. We're all pretty tired. I'll be getting a new companion, so that'll be fun. We actually got a new car a last week. It's also an Opel. A Mariva. It's a diesel. I like it.
   I have to get into town now. I hope you don't mind, but I'm bouncing.
Love ya!

We were driving by a race.

Hello people. I have like no time today. I'm super sorry if you were wanting all of the details of my life ever, because you won't be getting it.
A few things though.
My son had his year mark this week, and that led to lots of consideration on my life and the time I have left on my mission. It's not much.
We went on splits with the assistants this week too. They're doing well. I like them a lot. Good guys. I was with Elder Hemmingsen. He's a great missionary. Hard worker, loving guy.
We had a zone training with President this week too. It was all about planning. So now we plan more.
I also had an interview with President. Our interviews are usually like three or four minutes while everyone else has 15 minutes or so. Not this time. I had a temple recommend interview. So it was more like eight minutes!
That was pretty much my life. I hope you all have a great one!

We went on a boat tour of Göteborg,
so here are some pictures from that!

   Hello to the people. Today is a day that we have less time than we usually do. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I will now highlight a few moments of the week.
   On Monday, we went to an island called Köpstadsö. It was super fun! We took some really cool pictures and had a great time while we were out there. Sweden is a pretty cool place.
   On Saturday, we held a baptismal service for our investigator Sadik! He is a really great guy. He'll do really well as a member. I mean, he has been living like a member for the past while now.
   On Sunday, AKA yesterday, it was Mother's day, and therefore I was able to Skype my family. They got quite a few details about my life. It was super awesome and I love them many.
   If you have any more questions or hankerings for details about my life that you just can't wait until next week for, I would invite you to talk to my mother.
Have a great week!
Elder Heiner

The week was super good. I'm feeling good about this place. Around a lot of people and having a lot of success. We'll be having a baptism this weekend, so that'll be super great! We have three other people currently on track to be baptized, so that is also quite great.
The spring has indeed come, but we're still in Sweden, so sometimes the weather is super nice, and then it's back to freezing. Like last week, we were having a great day at like 13 degrees or something, and then all of the sudden, back to -1 the next day with snow on the ground. We woke up and were all like, are you for real?
There are probably 14 missionaries in the immediate town, plus 6 more in smaller towns outside of Göteborg. It's pretty fun. First time I've really been around other missionaries. Everyone like plans out pday together, and I just kinda hang along for the ride.
Have a great week.
