WELL HELLO EVERYONE AGAIN!!
it never ceases to amaze me how fast time goes by! I LOVE BEING HERE! even though summer was a very green winter and winter is already starting to kick in with tempuratures in the night already reaching below 0c sometimes! well Norway is still so beautiful and that will never change! the members here are so helpful and they remind me so much of the ward back home! i love being around them and i love making jokes with them as i would back home as well! its a good thing i dont have a problem getting along with people and ithank our heavenly father for such a great simple talent! i really have no idea what to write in this letter! i have been in OSLO 3 times this week and so that took alot of time!! but we have had some great things happen!
well....hmmmm i would like to say that as far as i know that baptism is still on and she is doing so well! we were able to meet with her two daughters this past week together but at the same time alone haha it kind of split off with the missionaries teaching the one daughter and the member and the mother talking to the other daughter who is a guess quite agnostic? and we sat and talked to the other daughter who is an HONEST TRUTH SEEKER!! she is so awesome! we ended up going through the baptismal questions since she asked what she HAD to do to be a member and so i told her that these questions would help her know what she would be commiting to:) she is so much more interested than she thinks but she wont admitt it;) haha i love having members on teaches and they make everything go so much smoother!!
kontakting on the streets lately has not been going very well and its the first time in my mission that its not really producing numbers...but at the same time i try to not be out on the street the whole time either because if there is anything better to be doing ill go for that first! we as missionaries forget that kontakting is not the only thing on the list! sometimes you have to be creative(which i am not) and look for other oppurtunities! well also with getting a new companion we have been doing a lot of planning to help him get familiar with the area and letting him in on all the things going down with our investigators! he also is OCD when it comes to organizing and so he had to organize our appartment and coordinate everything before he could leave.... haha well i will let you know we have a clean and organized flat and he really likes to cook...so i am in luxury of having home cooked REAL meals for every meal time! he is great to be around and a real sincere elder! i think we will get along well and we talk alot and laugh so i think our transfer has high hopes!:)
well no crazy stories this week but maybs next week!:) i would like to invite you all to read something!:)-- jakob 6:12. its probably one of the shortest scriptures you can read:) but its great! i love you! have a great week everyone!!
elder farnsworth!
