Jylland tour featuring EFY bops and snow

& Ældste Laurence in the SNOW!

Howdyyyy y'all! This week was a MASSIVE road trip for both myself and Elder Madsen! We ended up traveling roughly 1,000 kilometers aka from Utah to LA... so that was wild. I think I might have all the EFY songs that Elder Madsen has on his phone memorized. We were blaring them the whole time, we stay lit. 

We were on a big Jylland splits tour where we held splits with every single missionary in Jylland, aka the part of Denmark that's connected to Europe. It was lots of fun, I got to work with a lot of fun elders that I knew before and were companions with. We had a good time with all of the missionaries making donuts, having snowball fights and helping them with whatever they needed. I loved seeing a bunch of my old areas too, and it was a massive plus to grab some Burger Shack. Love that place!

It finally snowed and this Scandinavian country somehow turned into a winter wonderland! I have been waiting for this for the last 17 months! It didn't snow and stick at all last year, so I was stoked that it stuck this year. I was also in the most northern area in Denmark, my old home of Frederikshavn, and we got about 2 or 3 inches! That is a ton for Denmark hahah! It was great and honestly made me so happy. I also got to visit some friends, a lady I taught, and my friend Grazyna, who I helped teach and baptize. It was wonderful to finally see them again. I will say though, I was tired and ready for my own bed by the time we got back to Slagelse.

Church here is still online. We held it with some members and got to eat lunch with them and partake of the sacrament. It was a wonderful cleansing experience and I enjoyed it so much. I even got to try some pig neck. That was a first...but I am not one to shy away from a challenge, hahah!

We had a couple of lessons mixed in this week where we read the Book of Mormon with 2 of our friends. They are doing well and we were able to answer some of their questions and concerns, which I always love to do.

Gotta admit, I fell behind in the Journal and 90-day Book of Mormon Challenge this last week. I'm excited to get back on track though. I have seen this help my understanding and testimony much more than I could have imagined. Love that book!

Love from literally the entire eastern and middle part of Danmark,

The happiest missionary because of the snow.
