Story of my life, I have no time because of college. Sorry!
Real quick.
The Zone Leaders sent out a text challenging us to use the Word ''Ananas'' (Pineapple) in a street contact. So later that day I stopped a man on the street and told him that me and my companion were really hungry and wanted to go by a fruit at the store on the corner, but that we couldn't remember the word for pineapple because we're American. He looked at me awkwardly and told me I had surprisingly good Danish... then he thought about it for a second and said that he thought it was Ananas but he wasn't sure if he was thinking of the right fruit. I told him that sounded right, and then we awkwardly sat there as I scrambled to try and find a way to turn the situation into a conversation. Nothing came to my mind and the man just walked away.... One of the more interesting street contacts I've had I must say. How do you relate a pineapple to the church in a sentance or two, anyone have any ideas?
On a more spiritual note we've really been learning and talking a lot about our intentions. It's what we want to do and what we are trying to do that matters much more than what actually happens. We've been working fairly hard this week even though one might not think so from the numbers we got. I've never been one to focus on the numbers though. The biggest problem is just that our friends we are teaching don't have those good intentions. Things like laziness or business get in the way far too often. If I could find someone that has a sincere desire to learn I would be loving life.
Hopefully that'll be soon.
I'll write more once I'm done with college stuff. It gets harder and harder to write each week though haha. Sorry!
