So this week was a blast. We started off on Tuesday with playing
tennis with this way funny British investigator. That was a good start.
We also had a way good lesson with him. Then we had a sweet lesson with
this couple named Simon and Lise Lotte, who have been investigating the
church quite a while. They are living in Århus for a couple weeks
because Simon is going through a rehab program for drinking. Which is
working wonders. We just had a way chill chat with them. Got to know
them and figured out what they want from the church. They both want the
church in their lives to bless their baby, because they know that this
will be the greatest blessing they can give him. AND with Simon, his
occupation is a video game tester, right? :D Way awesome. Then to finish
the night off, we went to SUV, which is just the institute thingy for
the young single adults. They have a nice ward here, I'm excited to get
to know them even better.
Wednesday went pretty well too. We went on splits at
a place called Horsens. I went with a kid I knew pretty well from
before the mission. Elder Bateman. He was in drumline with me. So we had
a lot of fun talking about Mapleton and things, we also had some way
good lessons. Nothing too exciting happened on splits. :P
Thursday we had district meeting, and it was weird
to not be the one giving the lesson. But... things change in life haha.
Then we went and had a lesson with Thomas which didn't go as well as I
would've hoped. :P He has a testimony of the book of mormon, but doesn't
believe that he has to do anything now, that just his faith will save
him alone. Kinda kills me, because I feel like that defeats the purpose
of faith if you don't do anything with it. But hopefully something will
change in his life. :) After that we had a way good eating appointment
with some members, and we completely shocked them, with how awesome we
are. They were kind of in doubt on inviting missionaries over, but then
we just had a way fun time, and had a nice little spiritual discussion
after. It was amazing.
Friday was... alright. We did some stop bys, then
weekly planning. Then we got lost because we took the wrong bus. And
because of that, we missed our appointment with our investigator. :( But
we finished the day off with some more stop bys. So it was all right.
Saturday was soccer in the morning! :D Got to see
and play with the British guy again. He is pretty much my most favorite
guy in the world. After that we had another lesson with Thomas. Nothing
changed. He told us he had a strong belief in the book of mormon, but
didn't want to do anything with it. Then we went and stopped by some
people. But while on the way, this way drunk middle aged greenlandic
woman stopped us and started ranting. It started off nice enough just
talking about how she is Christian. But then she got mad... then sad...
then mad again. I thought she was going to kill us in the end. So as we
started finally walking away from this woman she turns around and says
"Don't listen to your parents! Listen to your mind!" and points at her
forehead. So after this traumatizing experience, we took a little
breather to laugh about it, then continued on our merry way.
Sunday was church, then we got summoned to help move
a table for this girl named Maria, but the table turned into a lot of
things. And we ended up being there all day because we also had an
eating appointment with her. I got to talk to her mom, who is this way
smart marketing person, and I learned a lot from that. Yay! :D So it was
a very good day.
Now I'm here, same as usual. Love you all, stay strong!
