We welcomed 3 new missionaries to the Norway Oslo Mission on Tuesday afternoon. We look forward to this day for many months!
Welcoming Elder Pfeifer, Sister Olaveson and Elder Martineau with the assistants.
Elder Pfeifer getting Norwegian money…
Elder Bleggi and Elder Mitchell telling the new missionaries about their areas…
Waiting to hear where their first area will be.
Sister Olaveson will be serving with in a few miles of where her ancestors are from. President Hill assigned her to a great trainer, Sister Servey but did not know anything about her connection to the area. One of the miracles of missionary work!
Elder Martineau had been telling his group for weeks that he really wanted to serve in Alta. This is his reaction when his dream really did come true! Again, not that it would have mattered but President Hill had no idea of his secret wish 🙂
Elder Pfeifer wanted to go somewhere where they played football (soccer)…he is happy too!
Getting bedding….
Writing home…
After a good nights sleep they are ready for a little training..
Elder Martinueau is off to the airport for his flight to Alta! He will join Elder Love. They are the Northernmost missionaries in the world during the summer months.
Elder Mitchell help back cars out of our long driveway…
Sister Olaveson and Elder Pfeifer traveled to their first areas by train…

Elder Jefferies has completed his service as a missionary in the Norway Oslo Mission. He arrived in Norway shortly after President Hill and I did. He is the first missionary that served with us from the beginning to end of his mission. We will misss him!
A contest to see who had the most “hot air”!
…..singing the mission song….
Ha det bra Elder Jefferies! Travel safe!
