It's crazy how that happens. This week was the perfect week to throw us in to the Christmas season! We got to go into Copenhagen for a meeting, so we took our preparation day time in Copenhagen and went to Tivoli! Its was incredible.
It is kind of like the equivalent of the Temple Square lights, but in Copenhagen. And times two. There were so many lights. It was a blast. They had all these light shows, decorations, I don't even know how to describe it. Just a Christmas wonderland. We didn't pay for rides or anything, just walked around and enjoyed Christmas.
At the meeting we talked about the Church's 'He is the Gift' Christmas initiative. Its going to be pretty sweet! Hopefully you have all seen the video online. If not, check it out! We also planned for our Christmas zone conference. One of the things that makes the Christmas zone conference so great is that after lunch we watch a movie. Usually it's just one of the church movies, like 17 miracles or Ephraim's Rescue... But not this year :) We got Frozen approved for us to watch!! I am beyond stoked, cuz I heard it was super good and it came out after I left! We were all way excited. The best part though, is that we aren't telling anyone. We are pranking the whole mission haha :) We told them all that we are going to watch 17 Miracles again, and they all bought it. But they are going to be pretty surprised when Frozen pops up on the screen! It'll be fun :)
That trip to Copenhagen was definitely the highlight of the week. Christmas is in full swing here. We got to go watch Santa light the big Christmas tree here in the city center. Counted down in Danish and all. The tree is about 30 meters tall... It was sweet to see. They definitely don't hold back on Christmas here! I love it. Its a great time to be in Denmark.
Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving! And hope that you have another good week this week. I love you and miss you!
