Hello!
I am loving my first week here at the MTC! I have a fantastic companion named Sister Sorensen, there are three other sisters in my district and seven elders in our district too. We have all grown so close over the past week, we are basically family. It could be because we are all crammed into a tiny classroom everyday but it is great! The spirit is so strong here! The gift of tongues is so real and I can see it everyday as we are learning in our classes and teaching lessons to our investigator Peter. So far we have taught four lessons to Peter and some have gone great and others have been really discouraging because we can't understand him very well and we don't know if he understands us. But the great thing is that the lessons that I feel discouraged about Sister Sorensen feels good about and vice versa so we can help lift each other up. Also the more Danish I learn the worse my English is so right now none of us can speak Danish or English, is it great. We share a room with an amazing sister going to the Netherlands/Belgium mission named Sister Fredrickson and she has been our guide and helped us so much! We would be lost without her! I have three teachers who are amazing and you can tell they really love us and the people of Denmark and they help us so much, I love them! On Sunday, T.C. Christensen and he said a quote that I have loved! It is "Great moments happen when preparation meets opportunity." These pictures are of my district at the temple. We are all pretty silly and have a great time together! I really love it here!
I love you all!
