Just so you all know... miracles do happen!!!

Well this week has been full of serve projects and just straight out busy. We met with one of our boss investigators this week 3 times. We gave him a copy of the book of Mormon in Danish audio to him on Monday. We have found out as of Friday he has read to 2 Nephi!!! He has had so many questions and he has actually experienced and believe the Plan of Salvation. He just really can't get enough. He came to church yesterday and they actually blessed some oil for the sick during Priesthood. He was confused about that. I explained to him that we believe in giving blessings for the sick and that Priesthood holders can bless the sick. He thought about it and said ''Is it too late to get some!!!!'' haha going to take a little more explaining. But he is on his way!!!
Me and Elder Wilsher had an interesting experience last Wednesday. We biked out to vodskov which is like a 30 minute bike ride. Than after a lesson with a less active we thought we could stop by another which wasn't too long from the city. (about 20 minutes =) ouch. Didn't feel like it. But we biked out there and missed the house. Turned around and a man pulled up in a truck. He asked us ''Hey elders, you looking for me?'' ''that depends do you know us?'' haha. He just invited us on in like we were family. Has an awesome Harley Davidson. Come to find out that we just 'coincidently' timed that perfectly. He actually left and forgot a few things and happened to come back home just at the moment we showed up.... yah right coincidence. haha

Turns out that he is an excommunicated member and has had a desire to come back to church. He says that he has tried many times. He owns a bar, leaves and somebody calls to have him come back and break up a fight haha. He came to church yesterday with his son. Ironically we timed that as well perfectly because his son wants to be confirmed in a church. (Danish possibly) But he's been advising to get baptized and confirmed into the Church of Jesu Christ of Latter day Saints. Because it is a place where he could possibly come back to and be active in if he desired. Yah ironically. Don't think so!!!! They both enjoyed church and we hope to meet with them again. It was sad we lost track of time and we had to leave for an eating appointment with some members. We biked as fast as we could that hour long sucker. We showed up 30 minutes late. But we called ahead of time and told them we were with a family that they possibly knew. Come to find out that it turned out to be there Uncle that we visited and they were all for joy that we were late because we found their family again!!

Had a Halloween party on Friday and a huge shout out to my Grandmothers famous chili recipe. It was a huge success! And got some actual home cooking! We dressed up as a motorcycle gange (because of our Harley Davidson buddy had some coats and helmets we could borrow) =) He references is the key haha.

But just so you all know Miracles do happen!!!!!!!! Just get out there work and open your mouths and the people who are ready will just come!

Love you all! Have a great week
