Love from Denmark, Ældste Modersitzki

Whelp, now we are here and I need to sum up the mission in one email. I don't know how I am going to do that, so bear with me. I will say that I am very excited to see my fam and hug my mom again though, not gonna lie.

Well, I don't really know what to say. I have fallen in love with Denmark. I don't know how else to explain it. I started off my mission less than loving everything here and feeling like God really didn't care what happened to me. I was very selfish overall. BUT luckily God was willing to work with me, through many wonderful people, places, companions and tons of blessings. God has blessed me with the ability to see His children and give me a glimpse of His plan through His eyes, especially the missionaries I have been blessed to work with. WOW we have some rock stars here in the Danish Mission. I love all of them so much.

They were in the same MTC group.

Being in the position I have been in for a little while, I have had the opportunity to see how a mission president gets inspiration. The Lord leads his people, especially in Denmark. Between calls and texts at 4 am from the mission president and the random ideas he gets, the Lord is behind everything!

I have come to LOVE the gospel while I have been here. Before my mission I will admit that reading scripture and learning about spiritual things was about the last thing on my mind. But don't worry, I have found that I love reading in the scriptures and diving into the stories and verses. I am fully convinced that God had every single one of us in mind while He inspired / wrote the Bible and Book of Mormon! And to add to that, there is no way that Joseph Smith wrote that book, he had to be inspired!

I HAVE BEEN SO BLESSED, and I am so thankful for my time here, for the people I have interacted with and met, and that God was willing to work with someone who was probably not the easiest disciple in the world. I am thankful for every single missionary I have interacted with, they are the best and I am happy to call them my new found family. I also want to thank all of you for reading my emails, donating money, and offering prayers on my behalf...and a big Thank You to Grandpa Dave and Grandma Karen for quietly funding this amazing experience!

I have so much more to say but I'd best stop soon.

Jesus is the Christ. We have a loving Heavenly Father. We are His children. God lives. Christ lives. It is only through Him that we can come back to our Father in Heaven. He knows us all individually. He knows my trials and how to comfort me. He loves me (and you). He is the answer to all the problems that the world is experiencing and it has been my pleasure to put on the name tag and represent him every single day for the last 2 years. I love Him and His plan.

See you all soon!

Love from Denmark one last time,

It wouldn't be right to end the blog without Tate
eating a kebab. Food. Always food.

And it wouldn't be right to end without showing a Zoom call.
Every missionary who served during COVID knows these well.

I'm so proud of Tate for loving his Savior enough to serve
a mission. We missed him like crazy, but it was 
completely and totally worth it.
