Week 51 - Thank You for the Music

First of: THANKS to all of you for the birthday wishes! This year's birthday was probably my favorite, and you all made it that way for me. So thankful I was birthed.

Tuesday: Began the day with a lovely burnt appointment. We waited at the church for the lesson. 20 minutes after the scheduled time, we called him. You know what he said? I'm on my way. I'll be there in twenty minutes. So? 40 minutes later we call again and come to find he's blocked our number. Sådan er livet.

It actually ended up being a really good day. We worked hard and taught a lesson over skype to Rebecca, one og my friends from Herning. We finished the day by visiting members and serenading them with hymns,, with social distancing of course.

Wednesday:
Not gonna lie, I think this was the best birthday I've ever had. My comps all did a lot to make it a great day.

It began with me, sitting on my bed, trapped alone against my will. 20 minutes later,,, sister Webb, followed by sis O'Connor and Nielsen, came in carrying an apple illuminated by the glow of 7 candles protruding from wonky angles. Still haven't gotten an explanation on that one. But they sang to me and guided me to the other rooms which were decked out and gave me some really sweet gifts.

The day just kept getting better as I received so many phone calls, texts, and emails from so many amazing people.

Later in the evening we went to a members house who had made food for us to come pick up. It was this sweet old couple, Anny and Leo. Anny made me a layer cake and they sang me happy birthday. I felt so loved. I started crying haha. They didn't even really know me and they were showing me so much love.

Thursday:
We had zone conference and some lessons. I'm sure there was more stuff but I can't really remember right now haha.

Friday: Went on splits with Søster Hepworth. Oh my gosh it was so fun we worked so hard it was like the best day ever. She is so bomb. Great at teaching. Great at Danish. Makes me laugh. Bomb.

Saturday: We had a bunch of lessons also a good day. We taught some of sister Webbs family which was really cool. We also had a coordination meeting with our mission leader Søren and oh my gosh that is always an experience. We tried to keep it focused on missionary work but instead it ended up with Søren making us stand up, face each other, and punch each other in the gut as a breathing exercise. Idk either.

Our friend Cenk also made us some traditional turkish mad. Which was super good.

Sunday: I got to call and talk to a family I know from home who means so much to me. It was really special to hear and share our testimonies of the Savior Jesus Christ.

We also had a lesson with our friend Oscar. It went okay. Wasn't the best. That evening we had a mission wide testimony meeting over skype it was way good.

I know God loves you!

So yeah, Great Week! Elsker her!
