Hej guys!
 
How are we doing without two kids???  I'm glad to hear you got home safe and the hurricane didn't do too much damage.  It's been way easy this week to tell people where I'm from.  Where's North Carolina?  The place that the Hurricane is hitting first.  OH.....  But yeah this week wasn't that good.  Mostly because Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday we had service.
 
One cool experience that happened this week was with Donna.  She's an American lady from Florida living in Smørum while she's visting friends.  She's an inactive member that we ran into at the bus station and we showed her where the church was.  She came that next Sunday and I translated for her.  Our mission leaders wife gave a really good talk about faith through trials.  As I translated, Donna just cried that whole time.  She looked back at me and said that that was exactly what she needed.  I'm really glad Heavenly Father was able to help me translate clearly so that it could help this woman.  Anyway, we had gone out contacting on the Gågade Saturday evening and we ran into her again.  She was crying again and told us that her dad had stage 4 cancer and that she was going home asap.  We talked to her for a little bit and she said, "Thank you so much.  You guys just appear right when I need you."  It was a way cool experience.  If we hadn't taken that exact bus, walked left down the Gågade instead of going to buy food we would never have found her and helped her.
 
So we found out that we might be moving this coming month.  The Zone Leaders are moving out of there apartment and are going to move in with us.  There is plenty of room for them in our house, but the house is so run down that the mission is going to fix it up and sell it and rent out a members apartment.  So we'll live closer to the bus station and church and the apartment will also be in nicer condition.  The only problem is that it'll be a little bit crammed. 
 
So all that is about the most exciting stuff.  We are knocking a ton still.  I really want a baptism by the end of September and I think we can get it if we just work as hard as we can.  So that's the goal.  Love and miss ya tons.  Hope BYU beats Ole Miss this week!!  Love ya'll!
