We have had another busy week in Norway. It’s transfer week and we were also excited to welcome 3 new Elders to Norway! The weather is cooler and the days are shorter. Fall is definitely in the air. We drove to Skein for church on Sunday. It is a beautiful little town with a great ward. We have 2 Sisters…
We were so excited to have all of the senior couples serving in Norway gather in Oslo for a few days. We feel like we learned so much and we are grateful that we were able to be together. Thanks to Elder and Sister Lemon for their efforts in organizing everything for us.
We have had such a great time with interviews in the past few weeks. Each missionary has an interview with the Mission President every quarter. We have been up, down and all around. We have also been doing apartment checks! Our missionaries have been working on dejunking apartments and doing a good fall cleaning. We are also trying to teach…

We were sorry to miss…
Last Friday we took the train from Oslo to Bergen. It was a change from the flights that we have been taking. If we did it again we would get first class tickets (they were sold out) and make sure that our seats were facing forward instead of backwards 🙂 It was a rainy day, but still relaxing and beautiful!…
Our September group headed home last week. We love the opportunity to have them in our home and learn about their experiences in Norway. We were able to see their growth from the beginning (MTC) to the end of their two years service as missionaries.
We are thrilled to have 14 new missionaries arrive this week. Sorry for the delay in posting these pictures. We are off to a district meeting in Bergen this morning but I wanted to post these quickly. Nine of them arrived on time and 5 came on a later flight from London…baggage issues with American Airlines. We had some lost…
