East to West (Øst til Vest)

Tate picking up his new companion, Ældste Vestergaard

Hello everybody! This week was odd. I had a gnarly headache/migraine, so this week was long but still good. 

Tuesday was kinda weird. I dropped off Ældste Østegaard and said goodbye. It was kinda sad, but I was excited to pick up Ældste Vestergaard... From his house.... Which was odd. But also way sick! I drove like 3 hours to the other side of the country with the APs. I guess that means I've seen nearly all of Denmark! Kinda crazy. I got to talk to his family and they were able to get some clarity on what this mission is and what we do. They are very cool people as well, so that was fun. It was weird having him say goodbye to his family as I watched, but he will see them again at the temple, because he hasn't gone through yet, and at the airport before he goes to his original assignment in New Zealand. It's funny because I knew his grandparents in Copenhagen long before I knew him. Small world out here.

Food this week : the burgers and fries from a place called Sunset Boulevard were nice. We also had a member make us some fire pulled pork! We eat well. I also made Ældste Vestergaard try a Pop Tart for the first time today. He likes them! Shout out to the USA. 

I've been to a bunch of castles before, but I wanted to go again to show Ældste Vestergaard because he hasn't ever seen them!! How wild! So enjoy some pics! 

We did some service as well this week for a guy who knows some members living in Salt Lake City! After our window washing and hedge trimming I asked to be friends on Facebook and he said yeah, typed in his name and we figured out we have a mutual friend that is a member in Copenhagen. Small world part 2!

I'm whipping Lamentations in my Old Testament grind. Weird but good stuff! 

We had John Bytheway give another devotional to our mission and man, he spits fire and is so funny! There is always something to learn from him. 

District meeting and splits were of course fun! As usual! 

I think that's all folks! Have a fire week! 

Love,

-Ældste Modersitzki
