Transfer week is always hard. Søster Millika E. Holbrook is staying on Amager.

Yes... It was that week for Søster Millika E. Holbrook and I think that is one of the hardest times for a missionary. You are either getting a new companion or moving away from an area where you love the people and the place. So a VERY hard thing for a missionary but what does hard things do for us ;o)... They make us grow closer to the Lord and better people if we allow them to teach us !!

 This week Søster Millika E. Holbrook had a helper while they were knocking on doors and contacting people and it was her BFF Emilie. What a sweet treat that was. Friends FOREVER!!

AND of course they had to have ICE-CREAM ;o)

I just LOVE this Sister missionary!!

Søster Millika E. Holbrook and Søster Ludlow. One last lunch "date" together with Mormor and Morfar. These to girls just loved being companions and will miss each other a lot!

Tivoli is so BEAUTIFUL at Christmas time. Hard to believe we were there as a family just one year ago celebrating McKay return from his mission in Denmark :o)

We LOVE these two SWEET "girls".

Main train station in Copenhagen. Saying Good Bye to Søster Ludlow was super hard for Søster Millika E. Holbrook ;o(

Email from Søster Millika E. Holbrook this week :

Dear Friends and fFmily,

First of all, how is it going with #lighttheworld?? did you guys check the video out?? Well, hopefully you did because it is sweet.

This week has been  a roller coaster. ....literally. Sister Ludlow and I went to Tivoli (an amusement park) and it was SWEET! It was her first time seeing it with all the lights and which made it just that much better. We also hung out with EMILIE and ended up getting a big "Come back" while randomly knocking on some doors with her! What is better than spending time with Emilie and doing some good missionary work?? Beats me.

Anyway, transfers were this week. Sister Ludlow got the boot. President actually told us, "The original plan was to keep you two together for another two transfers, but the Lord needed Sister Ludlow elsewhere." She is an amazing missionary and will bless the people in Roskilde! 

I obviously got a new companion, and her name is Sister Nelson. She has family from Denmark too!!! So it is safe to say we are going to be SPOILED at Christmas time. Tak family. Also, her danish is amazing so it will be a really really good thing for me as we speak danish all day.

Saying goodbye to Sister Ludlow was really really hard, but I love Sister Nelson already. She is so adorably quirky and I love it. I am looking forward to the transfer with her!

Had some great lessons this week! M is progressing well.

Ether 15:15.   "I can fight all day and conquer not. Or I could fight all day and conquer all. It is your choice." Just a nice reminder I tell myself occasionally when I'm feeling particularly prideful and want to do something my way.

Thanks for everything!

Søster Holbrook

Søster Nelson and Søster Holbrook and OF COURSE ice-cream :o)

Another great week in Denmark. We look forward to seeing our sweet Søster Holbrook's face in a few short days!! Having a missionary is a blessing and we feel it strongly in our lives.
