Hello Everyone,
This week has been very interesting. We have had a lot of different things going on and the most of it has just been preparing for this beautiful new year! We have organized activities and planned a lot of potential work. We had the opportunity to plan out the transfer and what we are going to do! This meant that we wrote each day what we will do for the rest of the transfer which just made me see how short the time we really have is. This work continues and these two years are the least I can give for the sacrifice of Christ that we get to remember during this Christmas time!
As a small challenge for this week we gave cookies to some of our friends! Overall it brought us a lot of joy to be doing something that could just bring joy to those that could use a treat! Giving in any way brings joy to our heart and as a missionary that is even more prevalent!
Before Christmas day we got out a lot to try and find and just do the work. A lot of it wasn't successful but we also find them that are elect and ready to learn! We have had some small miracles with finding some people that were willing to talk and give us their number! We hope to be able to have some success in this area and we pray for guidance as we do it.
As of Christmas Eve, we got to go to a members house after our short sacrament meeting! We spent the entire night at their house playing games and just having a whole lot of fun! We got to dance around the Christmas tree and just have a lot of fun with the Danish family! It felt like home since I have been celebrating Danish Christmas Eve's my entire life.
For Christmas day (Today) we got to go over and again and have fun with our district and the Johansens (The Danish family). We played board games and ate some very classic Danish food like smoked meal and smoked salmon! Overall the day was very fun and the reminder of us being missionaries still let me remember my purpose to constantly represent Christ. It's really special being a missionary at Christmas time. As this day comes to an end I get to see how thankful I am for the times to come and the times that have been. I loved chatting with my family today, and feel especially grateful for them.
We , as missionaries, are very thankful for your prayers and we wish everybody A Merry Christmas!
Love,
Elder Lines
