Hej familie!
It was really fun to get to skype home to you all and see your cute faces!
Danish phrase of the week: Tillykke med Mors Dag - It means Happy Mother's Day :)
Some highlights from the week:
1. We had a "Mini MTC" with the young men and women in the ward this week and Søster Van Orden and I were in charge of the activity so that was really fun! We played a game about some of the different rules we have as missionaries, we played a game where they had to speak english, then we had them teach the Joseph Smith story to each other and we ended with a mini devotional from their leaders and sang "Called to Serve". It was an awesome experience, we had a lot of fun but it was also really spiritual. We have a lot of really great youth in this ward.
2. We also went to Copenhagen this week for Leadership Council, that was really exciting because I love Copenhagen and it was great to be at the mission president's home. We ate some really yummy food and played a game called Jungle Fury thursday night. Then Friday morning we all woke up at 5:30 and went and played a game of American football, then we had a really spiritual and great meeting about what we need to focus on as a mission. It was really fantastic.
3. We had four of our great friends in church on Sunday! Two of them we didn't know were going to come so that was a really nice surprise when they walked in. We had a great Sunday, Søs. Van Orden and I taught in Relief Society and the Gospel Principles class so that was really fun.
