Stake Conference and meeting many great friends

This week was a fun week for Søster Millika E. Holbrook. She had the first Stake Conference in Denmark and that meant that she saw some loved "old" friends. Friends are great and especially this one friend that spent many great days with us this summer in Utah. The friend is Emilie and
Søster Millika E. Holbrook and her had a GREAT reunion. 

This is Emilie and her sweet family. I joined the church together with her mother Helle 28 1/2 years ago and what a great ride is has been :o)

What a SWEET and TENDER hug this is. They became BFF's fast over the last 11 months or so and it is like seeing me and Helle all over again... SO AWESOME!!

BFF's FOREVER !!

Here is her email to us for the week:

Family and friends,

The work is progressing here on Amager! We had some great lessons this week and are handing out more copies of the Mormons Bog than ever before! Our zone leaders challenged us to place 1,000 copies this transfer (which is a little more than 2 per companionship a day). This challenge is awesome because Sister Ludlow and I have been more bold and just preaching straight from the book of Mormon when we go knocking. Which is how it should be! The salvation of souls (and the free pastry promised to the first companionship that placed a Mormons Bog) motivated us to be the first to place a Mormons Bog and motivates us to just keep placing them! It has really helped us with the work. We actually got dropped by someone, but as they were dropping us, we still managed to get them to accept a Book of Mormon, so you never know! maybe they will pick us back up again.

One of my favorite things about missionary work is seeing the atonement change people. Helaman 5:51 is a great verse about the change the atonement can bring. Even to someone who has been taught something else their whole life. Gives me hope for the people here in Denmark! The Lord has blessed us with people who are ready for that change too! The atonement is real! It is powerful!

Thanks for the support!
