Kære Familie,
How are you guys doing? We had a pretty good week. After we emailed you on Tuesday, we went to Hanne and Henrik Olsen's house. They are way cool. They have a son who went on their mission the same day as I did. So I kind of relate them to you guys, just because they're in the same boat kind of. They love telling us about their son and what's going on with him and comparing his experiences to ours. There is actually a picture of him in my MTC pics if you remember. That was a lot of fun and I love hanging out with them they are so nice and so fun. We had an eating appointment Wednesday and Thursday with some really cool families. Despite eating with some cool families, the work this week has been really slow. There's no one who wants to stop and talk to us. We decided to knock on this kolligium that hasn't been knocked in a while. I love knocking there. It's like college dorms and there are only young people there. The young people are more rebellious, but much more open to hearing about new stuff. If you were to look at all the baptisms in the mission most of them are younger Danes. So yeah we're going to start that this week.
This upcoming week we have only two eating appointments. But on Tuesday Tolman and one of the ZL's is going to Nykøbing (Area Tolman came from, but is closed right now because there isn't enough missionaries) to visit some investigators down there. While the other ZL and I are going to Søborg to work for the day. I'm excited because I'll get to see Jack and Malene who moved there a couple months ago from Slagelse. And then we have interviews on Thursday in Roskilde and we'll hopefully find something out about Transfers. Oh yeah, thats our year mark too! :)
Speaking of a year, I decided to give you guys a little thing that probably is just my selfish skewed opinion of what I have learned over the past year. So first off, a new language. A year ago, zip zero notta Danish in my life. Now my life is almost nothing but Danish. I can now hold my own in conversation and convincingly fake that I understand what people are saying. But yeah, hopefully I'll be even better in a year from now! Another thing I've learned is how to talk to people and how to be patient with others around me. Something that I definitely struggled with before my mission. I've learned more about the gospel than ever before. It has strengthened my testimony so much! I've come closer to my Savior since coming on my mission and that has helped me be happier in my everyday life. So that was really short and probably disappointing, but hopefully I'll have more next week, after I've been here a year ;). Anyway, love and miss ya'll tons!!!! Have a great week.
