Hello everyone! It's that time of week Again! EMAIL TIME! I hope you are prepared for this, because I am.
Monday!!!!!
Wasn't that special, we spent most of our time putting up some blinds
and talking about past girl drama with one of our investigators. But we
did give a good lesson about why it's important to pray and read the
scriptures, Then we tried to stop by Yaseens house, but sadly he wasn't
home so... we ended up trying to find him because he had no phone, but
sadly it didn't Work.
Tuesday, we finally were able to meet with a referral
we got. Her name is Margit, and it was a good lesson. She is this super
nice older lady WHO has travelled pretty much everywhere! We talked
about religion and talked about why we have the book of mormon, and why
we have a church on the earth instead of just worshipping by ourselves.
After this we went ate a chinese buffet. We both ate 4 plates of food
and then 2 bowls of icecream. It was nummy, but afterwards we walked to
the car and Elder Holbrook wasn't feeling too well. (Neither was I, but
that's not important) So Elder Holbrook went off on his own and tried to
get himself together, and while he was doing that I found some cats!!!!
There were 5 stray kittens that I just got to love and pet! But after
Elder Holbrook puked, we went on our way and stopped by a potential
named Jette, and finally made an appointment with her. But get this, she
also had kittens, and I got to pet those as well. Then we had a good
lesson with Kenneth. Lot's of cigarette smoke, but we talked about the
book of mormon, and why we read it. Good day.
Wednesday, we went up and worked on setting up the
blinds Again, and had a really good lesson about church and everything.
(I can't really remember) Then we stopped by Inge-lise WHO is this less
active member, and she was feeling sick so sadly we couldn't see her.
Then we went to an eating appointment with Familien Cullingford.
Sadly... they bailed and Quinten forgot to tell us. But his wife is
super nice and gave us some dinner anyways. So we ate that, then we
stopped by some college kids, did the usual chat about video games, then
set up an appointment with them.
Thursday, we had district meeting, then we had splits.
Me and this sick kid named Elder Hansen did 6 hours of service at their
church! We were just helping a member take care of the grounds and
everything. We had a lovely chat about past relationships and games and
all of those fun past Things! After that we at some pizza, then some
waffles with ice cream on it.
Friday, traveling home, but our train got cancelled. So
we were just hobo mode at a train station. We had our blankets over us
because it was freezing, and we just stared at everyone that passed us.
We had an appointment, but we didn't have time to change into our
missionary clothes, so we planned on just going up there and telling her
that we won't be able to make it. But she invited us in, even though we
were all stinky and stuff. Then she unloaded on us. We heard her life
story, and it sounded a lot like a horror film. An ex husband that just
went crazy on her. So that was exciting. After that we had a sweet
lesson with the Steens, where we read a chapter in the book of mormon
with them. The thing is, Anders read it before our appointment! So it's
getting to them, and they are enjoying reading it!
Saturday we met with Andrea Again to fill out some
paperwork for her baptism, after that we had a really good lesson with
Yaseen, and ate some food with him. It was a chill day because of weekly
planning. Andrea is so cool, she told us that she wouldn't be a member
of a church if it didn't mean doing something. So she is already a super
active member of the church and willing to help out in any way
possible.
Sunday, It was a good day at church, I talked with some
of the members about transfers... because we think that I will be
leaving Sønderborg. It was sad to talk about it, this is my home, this
is where I learned everything, and I love the people. I think it's sad
because I'm not sure if I will be coming back any time soon. :P But
tranfer calls come on wednesday, so NeXT week I will let you all now
what is going on. After church, we went up and stopped by a less active
named John, WHO sadly is upset because he doesn't have a calling. So he
doesn't want to come to church even though he has a super strong
testimony. Then we had a lesson with Ernzt, WHO read 200 pages in the
book of mormon! It was a great surprise. We taught him about prayer, and
how to recieve the answer because he asked us about it. After that we
ate with Tom, and had our Little missionary meeting.
Now I am here, with Esbjerg elders by my side because
they wanted to spend pday with us. So I hope you all have a good week.
Love you all!
