Stopping for Lunch / 9 months

Familier og venner,

Happy December!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here. We got to

stop by the lighting of the Christmas tree here in Roskilde the other

day. It was so fun. They were selling churros, they had an elementary

school kid group singing Danish Christmas songs on a stage and an

orchestra all dressed in Santa like outfits. Oh and they have hung up

artificial trees and lights all over the shopping streets. We went

with Frely, the lady we ran into last week on the street whom had

given us directions before. She is so nice. She did end up reading the

chapter we had invited her to read and said it was like the bible.

We're meeting with her again this week.

We had a district activity last Wednesday and got to visit the Viking

Ship Museum (where they have pieced parts of 5 viking ships that were

found in the beach here). We got to learn about vikings and dress up

like them, too!

After that, we ate lunch at a bagel shop that's kinda set up like

Subway. It was just us 6 missionaries at the restaurant, so he asked

us lots of questions about what we believe. He is Muslim and thought

the Book of Mormon sounded interesting. We gave him one and invited him

to read Moroni 10. He said he would, we're going to go back sometime

to see what he thought.

Then, we visited the Domkirke. It was really cool! All the Kings and

Queens of Denmark are buried there. It's cool to see the influence of

many different centuries in the one building.

Sister Peterson and I have officially been out for 9 months. So, I

stuck with my molten lava cake tradition and we made a wish on our

last 9 months, how we want them to go :)

Hope all is well in the U.S. and that you all had a great Thanksgiving!

Love always,

Søster Orgill

P.S. Next week, we are going to Tivoli for p day so the email next

week may be very very short.
