Psalm 16:9,11 - October 31, 2016



Church in Glesborg
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: myflesh also shall rest in hope.
11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence isfulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Church in Randers

Everyone,

We had a zone conference this week with Elder and Sister Johnson from the area presidency. It was the best four hours of this whole week for me. We learned about the improtance of teaching, members, and using commitments. Elder Johnson also taught us that obediance can change things. Specifically when teaching a group of obediant missionaries. That took up most of Thursday becuase it is down in Århus.

Most of our lessons this week were finding lessons. One man was from Connecticut. He was planning a trip to the Western US with Vegas and the Grand Canyon. We talked about that for a bit, and then he asked us why we were here. It was the perfect opportunity to share the gospel with him. At the end of a great discussion he said that he wasn't really interested. It was really sad, but it is one persen closer to finding the one who is ready.

D and C 6:24 - October 24, 2016

Eric, Søren, and Me

24 And now, behold, you have received a witness; for if I have told you things which no man knoweth have you not received a witness?

My District
Everyone,

This week has gone really well for us. Things are starting to pick up again.

I think that I will start with the less spiritual stuff. That way the spirit can come back by the end. We took an essential p-day last week because we had an activity Saturday. Eric and I have become great friends due to our similair hobby of model trains. He took us this week to a display down in Hadsten. It was so much fun. We had a great time there, and I took a few pictures for everyone at home to see.

Everyone,

Lots of fun stuff going on here in Randers. We had a really hard week in terms of investigators, but a great week in terms of blessings from Heavenly Father.

Isaiah 5:4‏ - October 10, 2016



Zone Conference September 2016

What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?
Areas around Randers

Everyone,

This week has been really quite here in Randers. Not having a third persen makes quite a difference in a companionship. Elder Johansen is safe in Utah, and as far as we know he is doing fine. It was sad to say goodbye Monday night at the train station last week.

I think that I will start with some eating appointment stories this week. We ate with familien Koch. They are great members in the ward, and their son was in my district in København. He left last week for the MTC in South Africa before he goes to Zimbabwe for his mission. It is a little odd becasue he has now done mission work for a month, but they still wanted him to go to the MTC. Turns out these members bought a clock to count down the time until he returns. It was quite funny to Elder Ericksen and I as well as their kids when they excitedly read the time down from years to seconds before he comes home.

Ephesians 2:19-20‏ - October 2, 2016


Elder Erikson, Elder Johansen, and me
19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles andprophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone
Hygge Time

Everyone,

This week has been quite interesting for us in Randers. Lots of phone calls to København, and out of all of it we find out that Elder Johansen will sadly be leaving us. He has to catch a train in a few hours to start his journey to his mission in Provo. It has been a blast having him. This tripanionship ony lasted two weeks, but we have all become really close quite quickly.
The three of us
We spent two days in Århus. One was with zone training, and the other was on splits. We learned about Mormons Bog and using our language. President O'Bryant showed us the beggining of "A New Day for the Book of Mormon." It was wonderful to see. He taught us the importance of it, and evan though we tend to get lots of anti stuff that it is true. It was a great testimony builder as sadly this week Henrik, our investigator, has sent us lots of anti stuff.
