We started off the week right by going on splits with the APs. I was paired with Ældste Neiderman. I have been on splits with him SOOOO many times, and that's just fine with me. We are good homies. He could almost be considered my companion lol. We had a good time contacting and knocking. Who is ready for a wild story that will probably scare my mom? Buckle up. We were knocking and had just found someone who was willing to have us come back and teach, so we were feeling pretty good. We knocked on another door and a guy opened up and just gave the usual not interested answers. As we were about to leave he hit us with an "Ikke kom igen," which translates to "Don't come back" and then lifted up his sweatshirt to show us the PISTOL he had chilling in his waistband hahahahaha. We were like, "You got it dude!" I wasn't actually scared, but it was WILD. I would never have expected that to happen in Denmark.
We had a ton of eating appointments this week. We have been working on member relations here and it's finally paying off a little. We have challenged the members to do some missionary work and if they do, they will get in return a homemade dinner made by yours truly. It's gonna be worth it. They seem to be willing to try it though, so that makes me happy.

| Eating at his beloved Burger Shack |
We had interviews down in Aalborg as well as district council. President Olsen and I are just homies, we just kinda hang out a little bit. It is refreshing to talk to him and his wife. They are super dope. And for those who actually read these you know I LOVE Burger Shack.... so we pulled up and snagged some after interviews. They were playing some good music that matched the outdoorsy vibe and I felt like I was eating a burger up AF canyon. I was having such a good time.
NOW FOR THE REAL EXCITING BIT!!
We had a lesson with our friend Grazyna from Poland on Sunday! It was a spirit-filled lesson where she conveyed her experiences with feeling the spirit while reading the Book of Mormon and I was just like YES GRAZYNA YES! I had promised her that she would feel the spirit and gain a witness if she did the 21-day Book of Mormon Challenge, and what do you know? God fulfills his promises! So we were just like hey Grazyna, we don't really have much else to teach you, would you like to be baptized? She was super pumped and said yes! She didn't know if she should ask us if she could be baptized, or if we needed to be the ones that initiated that conversation to tell her that she is ready. She said she had thought about it a lot recently. I was so psyched! I told her that this was a step on the road to getting sealed to her husband and she was so happy to hear that. She was so happy that she wanted to go into the commandments lesson right then and there. So yeah, Grazyna is on date for the 7th of November. Pray for her so that it all works out!
Corona is getting worse here in Denmark, we have gotten new restrictions. I just hope we don't get put back on lock down! Hoping for the best!
Love from the Havn!
