Lunch at the Stockholm YSA center with the new missionaries.

 The next morning, Wednesday, November 9, 2016, we woke up to a great snow storm in Stockholm, which turned out to be 3 and a half feet of snow, the biggest November snowstorm that Stockholm has seen in 111 years.  Good thing we have service minded missionaries to dig us out.

It took all the office Elders to push the mission van out of the snow and up a small hill.
