5.5.14

Hej!

Well, this e-mail is pretty much going to be an echo of the last e-mail. Slagelse is still awesome! I had such a fun week. Spring is in full swing here and everything is just so pretty! I didn't really realize what I was missing when I was in Tåstrup. I don't know if I ever mentioned it, but Tåstrup was a tad on the ghetto side, so there was lots of concrete and metal and apartment buildings. But Slagelse is exactly the opposite! We get to see the Danish spring in full swing and it is incredible. Everything is so green! And yellow! 
haha I'll probably have at least one of these yellow fields of flowers pictures in each of my emails for the next couple of weeks. They are just too incredible. As we drive places I pretty much have my camera out the whole time taking pictures, spring here is just so pretty! 


So the story of the week this week was service! It was great! We have been offering service like crazy and it payed off big time this week. We had did service every day except for one and it was great!.Super fun and it was great to be outside. And we saw some sweet things come from it! We did service with this Brazilian lady named Rosane and after the service were able to sit down and have a little lesson with her, and she ended up coming to church yesterday! Service. It's great. Especially here in the spring. It's super effective in finding people and getting referrals, and it's a lot of fun at the same time! So I definitely can't complain. Looks like it will keep up this week as well so that should be really fun! 

So we are working with this new convert family, and they have a way sweet story. They went on vacation to Utah for 3 months earlier this year and ran into the church. Long story short: They ended up getting taught and baptized by the missionaries in Utah! Loved the church and had great experiences, and got baptized right away! And then came back to Denmark at the end of their vacation and showed up in church here as new members haha. Their name is the Kristiansens and they are a blast! So much fun! We are teaching them the new member lessons and doing a lot of service as they are in the process of moving. Pretty crazy though eh? Go on vacation, come back baptized! Awesome though. The missionaries in Utah actually brought a RM from Denmark with to go and teach them. Pretty fun. 

Well, hope all is going well at home and that everyone is looking forward to Mother's Day!! I sure am. Skype!! What a wonderful thing :) But until then, I love you all and miss you all! Have a great week!!
