Hi all! So I've been assigned to Randers, Denmark for my first area!! It's located in the middle/top of the larger Jutland island in the Northern end of the country. Randers is cool for the most part and a little bit industrial looking too. My companion's name is Ældste Grossnickle and he is different than me in a lot of ways, but he is also very nice. It's pretty here and the members are the nicest people ever. Being a missionary in the field is so weird sometimes, but we see miracles every day and I feel more like a normal person now that i can ride a bike and breathe fresh air. I loved the MTC more than I thought I would and I actually miss it at times. No one really wants to listen to us and soooo many people answer the door pretty much naked, not kidding, so that's something to get use to..... I love the grind though. My danish is coming along. I can speak wayyyy more than i could when i first got here (a whole week ago)!! My district is super cool and I enjoy getting to know them all more. I went on splits Friday in Århus with some of the other Ældste's and it was so fun. So, we are teaching a guy who came to church Sunday and I really hope he will be baptized. His name is Samuel and he is so sick. We are going to commit him to baptism this week and see if he will accept. There are very few baptisms in Denmark, so I'm excited to watch him change his life and hopefully accept the Gospel. It pours rain here all the time haha so i had to buy a backpack and some rain pants that are waterproof so that will be good to stay dry. i am so happy and good and I am making myself laugh at the little things by making noises to myself and telling myself jokes. We don't have phones yet, but this Friday is Zone Conference and we are going to get them, as our mission becomes an official technology mission. I love you guys so much and miss you all, but this is awesome here and I love being a missionary. Also, my Mission President and his wife are the nicest, coolest people I've ever met! I am so glad i have them. They are like family already. I am grateful that i get this opportunity to serve my mission and i am excited for the future here in Denmark.
Love you all. Ældste Fisher
