Mission Conference & the Temple-Søster Severson's Adventures in Ballerup Denmark August 23, 2021 Week 70

 Hi everyone!! Hope you're all doing well, I apologize for being a little MIA the last couple of weeks but I'm alive and doing good! Seven weeks left and trying to power through it !! 

This week was a lot of fun! Two highlights were the temple and mission conference! 
.....well... it was supposed to be a mission conference.... until half the mission got put in quarantine (whoops!) So our "mission conference" ended up being out district (aka the entire island of Sjælland) + the elders from Iceland!! 

We are tech missionaries right now so we gave a two hour training where we broke into workshops to learn about aesthetics, Reels, Danish Connect, YouTube, filming and lighting, and content creation. Did someone say social media influences? Sometimes I still can't believe this is missionary work... 

But it was SUPER fun to meet all the Icelandic Elders, we went to Vor Frue Kirke with them too to see the Kristus statue (again lol, perks of being close to KBH;) 

On Friday we got to go to the temple and do an Endowment Session in Danish which was really special. It really made me realize how much my Danish has grown to be able to understand the whole thing. I love going to the temple and being in the celestial room. I love the peace and clarity that comes from being in the House of the Lord. 

Galatians 5 
13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

I like this scripture because it's a good reminder that with our freedoms and privileges we have an opportunity and responsibility to serve and show love to others. ♡ 

Fun Danish fact: the word for island in Danish is ø (literally just the letter) and the word for Iceland is Island. Fun. 

Love you all! 
Søster Severson
