Christmas time on Amager looks AWESOME!

Another Great week for Søster Millika E. Holbrook and Søster Ludlow. Together they are a great companionship and of course they are hoping for one more time together .... Since this next week will be transfer week. Only time will tell.


It is Christmas time on Amager and it looks like LOTS of fun :o) Here Sister Ludlow and Søster Millika E. Holbrook trying to be cute and festive. ...  And I think they did it.

It is lots of fun. we LOVE Søster Ludlow!


Email of the week from Søster Millika E. Holbrook:

Hey friends!

 This week I am running low on time too, so there won't be too much detail in these stories. sorry.

As promised, here is the fast version of last week's story: we were late starting our next contacting block. We went anyway and ended up bumping into someone who had been walking and thinking about God and His plan for her. If we had not showed up at that precise moment we may never have met her, especially because she lives in Germany and was only here for the weekend! She cried and was so grateful to met us! happily accepted a Book of Mormon and will find the missionaries in Germany!

We left a dinner appointment with a member and immediately bumped into someone we had contacted before, but hadn't been able to get her number because her bus came and she ran to catch it before we could! So this time we got her information and will visit her later this week. She is probably the second person we've ever run into again because there are just SO many people on Amager! So it was bizarre!!

We felt like we should knock in a very specific area (well we had a general suburban area picked out and then when we got there we felt very specifically that we should go and knock on specific section in this little neighborhood) and we ended up walking into a guy named J, who invited us into his house (he was on his way back from grocery shopping when we stopped him) accepted a Book of Mormon, and he invited us back!

I know you guys are missing about a 1,000 details, but I just want to testify that miracles do happen! I don't know how God works out every detail so finely, but He does. He somehow sends people to us or us to people in incredible ways! He counts our steps, and He directs us for good! I have learned that when you are on the Lord's errand, there are absolutely no coincidences! How lucky are we to have an all knowing and all powerful being directing our lives? I guess blessed is the more correct way to put it, and wow! am I blessed!!!

I wish I had more time, but this will have to do. Everyone should check out the Christmas video for this year and then ACTUALLY DO the Christmas calendar. We've done it/are doing it as missionaries and love it. As you do, I have no doubt that you will see the miracles that we do as missionaries!!!

 We helped a member clean up a handball stadium and got to watch the last few minutes of the game! it felt weird doing "normal" things. But I do have to admit that handball is pretty sweet!

 Søster Ludlow and I missed our bus on a day that we were running late. It bummed us out, but we just bought some freshly roasted almonds while we waited 20 minutes for the next one so I guess it all works out in the end.

 I am thinking this must be their district or for sure a good looking group of missionaries ;o)

 LOVE this! It reminds me of Søster Millika E. Holbrook and Elder Grant. She is serving with the "white" babies and he is serving with the "black" babies. 


 Looking good I want some pretty please ;o)

I am thinking this is at the mission office but if not some good missionaries and really CUTE sisters!!

These ladies are just too fun. So enjoy Monday's and seeing all their fun photos.

So it has been another GREAT week for these two sweet sisters. This next week will be bitter sweet for them but it is ALL in the Lord's hands. He is real and He is good.
