As we arrive in Aarhus, we are always greeted with missionaries with huge smiles. We all look forward to reuniting every six weeks. President and I actually see and train missionaries in-between, but it's always wonderful to be together. Zone Conference was on The four cornerstones for progressing investigators, Final hopes for our missionaries, and the Atonement- Mercy vs. Justice.
Boxes of Book of Mormons for each apartment
First time I wasn't allowed to enter the lunch area beforehand but I
sent my camera down with elders to take pictures...always decorated so
creatively...
Yes, this is actually one of the mission bikes.
Three assistants for two weeks.
White handbook training
Birthday celebrations
Our faithful and dedicated senior Missionaries
Traditional "Big" cookies for the break...
Sharing a picture of our other family...Goodbyes are never easy. So we
just invite everyone to visit us. We have built a pizza oven to feed
missionaries, and have a deep freeze waiting to fill with pizza crusts.
We committed them all to visit after their missions...even the two
cousins from Australia.
We asked the missionaries what they were doing on September 16th, the
day President and I received our calling and began to prepare...LOL
This may be my favorite training President has ever given...finding
balance in the Atonement by accepting the law of Justice but developing
equal faith in the Lord's Grace and Mercy. It was a beautiful
message<3
Our final message while holding each other up...
We just love our mission! (Every mission needs an Elder Blocker...) A wonderful gift and a place for all our missionaries to sign.

Elders Owen and Saviano and Sisters Uluave and Matheson sang "God Be
With You". Elder Owen sang the first verse as a solo. The hymn was
beautiful. Sister Warren accompanied beautifully on the piano.
A wonderful gift...
A priceless gift with a picture and testimony of each missionary in the mission<3
We didn't expect a performance but they were prepared with a wonderful
program. Sister Esplin and Sister Matheson coordinated and wrote new
words to a beautiful drumming campfire song. It was an impressive
performance! (Drumming lyrics below)
We have loved our time in Denmark with the beautiful green land and blue
skies. The members are faithful, kind and helpful in every way.
However our greatest joy has come by serving the Lord along-side these
wonderful missionaries. They arrive with enthusiasm and ready to
change. They have become master teachers, expert listeners and strive
each day to follow the Lord's example. They are bold, but not
overbearing, and bring the message of the Plan of Salvation to those who
will listen. Their efforts bring many into the waters of baptism.
They are truly instruments in the hands of the Lord. The Lord is
leading His work in Denmark.
We will be forever grateful for this life changing opportunity.
We love the Denmark Copenhagen Mission.
