Kære familie,

 

Thankfully this week went a lot faster and was not as bad as last week.(I did not post last week's letter - William had a bad week and we just let it go - prayers would be good although I know you are all praying for him every day - thanks from the mom!!)  We had some awesome appointments and on the bad side, it snowed again!  grrrr.  So here's the weekly report:

 

Mandag:  We only had part of P-Day because we had an appointment in North Sjælland.  It is a referral from Roskilde, who was referred from Odense, so they've been places, but apparently when they went to church in the wrong ward, they asked what they had to do to be baptized.  Yeah, this made us a little excited to teach them more.  So we went up and found out that the wife is dying from cancer and the docs have basically given up on her.  Her husband seemed really anti at first, but as the lesson went on he was way nicer and was more than willing to accept our invitation to church. 

 

Tirsdag:  We went back up to North Sjælland to teach a Brazilian investigator whose sister is a member.  She has had some marital troubles that have kept her from being baptized, but she thinks that she will be ready in mid March.  So we set a date!!!!  Then that night we went down to Nykøbing for splits.  If you were to look on a map, you would see that we were in mid Sjælland and went all the way north and then all the way south to Nykøbing-Falster. (Here is a link to google maps - it is far especially with no car!!   http://maps.google.com/maps?q=denmark&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&biw=1600&bih=684&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=il  )

 

Onsdag:  Splits down in one of the worst areas in the mission was freezing!!!!

 

Torsdag:  We took the rest of our P-Day and ended up having our best day.  We visited Tom our New Jersey investigator and gave an awesome spiritual thought then we basically by accident visited a couple of other less actives.  We met one who was visiting our dinner appointment.  She's an American lady.  Afterwards, we took dinner to one of my favorite less actives. 

 

Fredag:  We were at an appointment of one of our most difficult investigators and yeah she was difficult.

 

Lørdag:  I can't really remember what happened.

 

Søndag:  We had church, visited an investigator who was difficult.

 

So yeah that's my week in a nutshell.  Hope all is going well and I miss and love you tons.
