May Arrivals 2017

Waiting for our arriving missionaries...hoping they come out f the doors quickly before I need to rush home and begin preparing our traditional Danish meal.

I was so sad to have to leave...but dinner will be delicious;)

Finally they arrived at the mission home after a day in Copenhagen.  They were surprisingly awake and it was a great visit.

The traditional homemade layer cake with a layer of marzipan over it.

These missionaries "come to serve, not to be served".

Ready for a day of training...

Meeting their trainers.

We are so blessed to have these missionaries.

Iceland's visit to Denmark May 2017

Bringing in the missionaries from Iceland to Denmark during Elder Andersen's visit was such a wonderful experience.  We love visiting Iceland every 6 weeks, but to combine the faith of the whole Denmark Copenhagen Mission was a special blessing.  It was a delight to feel the spirit these disciples bring with them.  There is true power in faith. 

Late night snack on arrival to the mission home.

Breakfast burritos before the mission conference.  It was so great to have so many sisters ready to help.

The seniors wanted a picture by this beautiful flower bush...Rhododendrons are some of my favorites.

The spirit in this room was palpable.  The light was bright.  The power was strong.  They came ready to learn.

Our faithful senior Icelandic missionaries.

Al the Icelandic missionaries attended the temple together.  Blessings!  See you soon in Iceland<3

More pictures from Elder Andersen's visit...

We had the missionaries arrive 1 hour before Elder Andersen so they could "meet and greet" each other for 30 minutes and then sit in the chapel to read scriptures and listen to prelude.  They really love reconnecting with missionaries.  It was pretty exciting.... and a little noisy...but wonderful.  Just see the love they have for each other<3
