Hello Everyone,
Another good week in the land of Denmark! This week has been a lot of getting into the flow of Danish and truly trying to talk with everyone. My companion and I have been having an amazing time here in Aarhus and we have had some great experiences.
We had an absolutely amazing dinner with a friend of ours named Janik. We made Frikadelle (don't know the spelling). They were so delicious and I devoured everything. There were caramelized potatoes and collard greens too. Overall a delicious meal and a good lesson to finish it off!
We were able to do a lot of finding this week and I wanted to try and lead more with that. I felt the hand of God in my words and actions as I talked without fear for maybe the first time since I've been in Denmark. What an amazing experience!
A big spiritual blessing this week has been my studies. I focused on trust and that led me to studying the way that light is used in the scriptures. My favorite thing I found is that light that guides charity which is Christ. As we show others our love they become more open to talking and knowing how they can have that too. It is important to see all of that as missionaries and as members of this Church. There is so much that can come to pass through the Light of Christ.
We were blessed with the opportunity to be able to participate in the stake primary activity and dress up as Lamanites and the mob that attacked the members of the church. Part of that meant that we got to get swords and then pretend to die in front of a bunch of primary kids. I died at least 8 times and got stabbed more than a hundred times. They really were passionate about that situation. So much fun.
Along with all of these experiences there are challenges. However, I feel the biggest thing that I feel is joy for the work when I reflect and look at what I have done this week!
Thank you everyone for all your prayers and all your support!
Love,
Elder Lines
