Hello everyone,
This week we have had a lot of time at the beach. Not as one might think. We have had a lot of activities with friends and members that involve us going to a beach. Some of these activities included spike ball and rock skipping. The beaches in Denmark are such a beautiful thing and help me appreciate the things that God has given us. We don't get in the water, but we sure enjoy the scenery. It makes me happy.
This last week we had a lot of lessons but most of them fell through. The hard part about teaching is sometimes people don't have the will to show up. In these cases, we often have other activities planned as a backup. But it's a very sad time when we don't get to have all of our lessons. Oh well. Trying to make the best of it!
We got to eat with 2 members this week and both of them are very amazing families. They are willing to help out with our missionary work and have offered to have our investigators and friends over whenever we have lessons. It is their generosity and the overall generosity of all members that has led me to say that the members of Denmark are really the best. It really inspires me.
Overall, a lot of the activities we have done this week have been standard finding, planning, and other missionary work. I feel like this is the week before the storm but this storm is a good storm.
This upcoming week is going to be a very busy and very fun week for missionaries in Denmark. We have a zone conference and stake conference this week. It's been a lot of fun to have all these activities to plan. I'm really looking forward to it. It will be fun to gather with missionaries and members.
This week, I have been able to see a lot of connection and spiritual power through my personal study. I have been connecting topics as I study and have been able to go more in-depth to learn about everything that I want to. In particular, I have been focusing on how people can experience the spirit and how we can strengthen the spirit and ourselves. I can say that my experiences as a missionary thus far have helped me to understand how I can strengthen my spirit and feel this strength more often. I'm really grateful for this lesson. There have been a lot of talks that I have read that have pointed to Christ as the source of all spirit and hope. I have felt that as I read scriptures or hear messages about Him. That is the way that I can feel the joy that He offers.
I encourage everyone to think about the ways that they feel the spirit and the way they connect to Christ as that is the most important way to come unto Him and see the blessings He can give you.
Thank you everyone and I hope to hear from you next week.
Love,
Elder Lines
