t-boned!

Hey everyone! 

This week was crazy so let's get into it!  We had a lesson with our friend Mette and challenged her to stop smoking.  It went well and she also came to church!!  We are going to meet with her this Wednesday and if she decides to stop smoking then she will have taken one step closer to getting baptized!  I got some good news this week.  I found out that a couple that I taught while I was in Randers is getting baptized!  Me and my comp (at the time) were the first ones to teach them so I think we'll be able to attend their baptism.  I'm so happy for Niels & Shelly!

So here's the crazy part of my week...

Friday we were driving to get lunch after our district council meeting and I decided to go with some other elders on the way back. We were driving and we came to an intersection where the elder driving couldn't see into the intersection and so he went for it and we got t-boned! I was sitting on the driver's side back seat where we got hit and the airbags went off haha it felt like a huge football hit.  Don't worry tho I'm fine!  We went to the hospital later that night and I have a concussion (not too serious) but I've been resting and I feel better.  Anyways it was crazy and we are lucky that we weren't injured more!.  Don't take any day for granted 🙂 

God loves you all and so do I!  Have a great week!

Danish 24/7

Hey everyone!

This week was a good one!!  We had mission conference and it was so good to see everyone.  I love all the people in the mission...they are great.  We have been doing a lot of finding lately and been speaking danish 24/7 which is way fun hahah!!  My new companion doesn't speak very much English so it's safe to say that my Danish is getting better and better.  I definitely get huge headaches but it's worth it!  This week we went down to Næstved branch and I gave a talk again.  It is always hilarious there because something goes wrong each time.  We were singing a hymn and the electric piano kept turning off and the pianist was basically hitting it each time it turned off.  haha!  

Remember that your heavenly father loves you all and knows you!  Have a great week!

Let God prevail

Hey everyone!  This week was good.  I got a new companion last Monday.  His name is Elder Grabe.  He is from Esbjerg, Denmark and he's a nice dude.  He did home MTC for 3 weeks and then was ready to get out into the field.  I drove with another missionary to Elder Grabe's home (a 3 hour drive...one way), where we had lunch with his family and then I was the lucky one to take him away.  Ha ha.  It was actually pretty rough to watch his parents be so sad as we loaded up his luggage and drove off.  We then drove to the mission home in Copenhagen where we had dinner with President and Sister Olsen and the one other new missionary and his companion.  It was a good but long day once we made it back to Slagelse and got him settled in our apartment.   But, we have been working super hard and we're each learning new things being together.  

On Thursday, I was able to help out with a baptism of an 8 year old boy in our ward so that was a cool experience.  Then we got to watch general conference with one of our friends this weekend!  She was super happy to listen to it and enjoyed it a ton.  I especially enjoyed President Nelson's talk about letting God prevail in our lives!  Sometimes it's easy to get caught up with things that don't matter in our lives.  I'm so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who sent his Son to Earth and that he has given us a prophet on the Earth today!  Hope you guys all have a great week and remember to let God prevail!
