The Trondheim Gang

HEY GUYS!!

  Well this week has been a good one and as usual just flew by faster than ever! the last weeks are just flying by and now its the end of march! wow! elder lillywhite and i have been together for almost a 3 weeks now...haha he only has 5 weeks left! well its funny to look and see how long i have been with alot of my companions and to count and compare with others how many comps they have had! i will most likely have only 8 comps my whole mission! i say this because my 8th comp is most likely my last one who will be joining us on tuesday! we will be in a triple for the first time of my mission! i am way excited! he is from idaho and is super tall and funny! he is 4 months behind me so he is in elder morriss group! well as far as this week it has been good and we have a pretty solid new investigator and i hope he really pullls through! he is way humble but may be a little on the slow side but he is searching and he comes from the farthest connected island in the north called Vardø! We have had some great visits with members seeing as the mission pres wants us spending time with members( 5 member visits a week not including teaches) and sharing a message and its helping us alot seeing as it has not been like the other wards i have been in. they all are different but just in their own ways:) i love members and being around them and seeing how the gospel has blessed their lives! It makes me understand how the gospel has helped me in my life and how much i like sharing it! We had a really cool experiance in church right as the meeting was beggining we had a lady come in and i went and talked to her and she told me that she had been trying to come for the past couple of weeks but just couldnt get up the courage! i talked to here and told her our purpose and she said that she wanted to start meeting with us and talking! she was impressed at what she felt when she came in! it made it even easier for her since i was so loving and caring when i talked to her...she said that not me:) i could just feel her sincerity and love! we have an appointment with her tomorrow and i think it will go really well with her circumstances! Its been a good week i am just trying to keep up with everyting! it goes by way fast! thanks for all the suppport and i love you guys so much! thanks for the letters and what not! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!

Not Much Going On This Week!

HEY ALL!!

 well its been a week!! its been super hard this week when it comes to finding and just trying to figure out what we are suppose to be doing here! we have done a lot of brainstorming this week to try to figure out what it is that the lord wants us to do here! the days are good but the work is going slow but we are still having lots of fun!:) We saw the northern lights last night and that was elder lillywhites first time seeing them even though from a city view they were not that strong! its still always cool to see them!!:) we helped move an older lady this week and found out that her husband is not a member! never would have guessed! we moved them for what we though was only going to take about 2 hours! well turned out to be old people that hadnt done ANY PACKING!! it took 9 hours! ahh we were just exhausted afterwards and since we didnt have appointments we stayed while everyone else left and we had to do all the hard lifting and after not lifting for almost two years wow it was so hard!! it was way good though and we are going to start teaching the husband who by the way loves to speak english and for a 85 year old man he speaks almost perfect english! no joke! norwegains are way to good at english! well nothing to crazy to report this week except that things get better everyday!:) thanks for all the support! i love you guys so much!! have super week!!

It's Good To Be Busy!

HEY GUYS!!

 Wow this week has been super AWESOME!! totally have just had a good week have have sound almost 20 potentials this week! It was weird not having a comp for almost 2 days....i was on splits alot and sitting at the church and then did some home teaching with a member! i love the feeling of recieving revelation and then being able to follow through on it and see that it was comfirmed! its such a cool thing! like for example i was with a member and we had called alot of people and no one answered so we prayed and i picked a random name when i went through it and called him with no answer so we decided to just go there and he wasnt home but we ended up visiting another lady who was less active that LITERALLY smokes like a chimney! she packed up 5 sigs in a row and smoked them in the 25 minutes we were there! on the way to the bus we found the guy we were trying to get a hold of! he missed us! it was super cool! Now that elder lillywhite and i are back together its just like old times except the fact that we are now experianced and can speak fluently and there is no problem there! so we are just starting our attack on norway! i am way stoked! we have had a great couple of day! met some people and have done some really smart work! we are still working on gettting investigators but we have a lot to work with now and so i think we could turn some really quick! this week has been extravegent! i needed a sweet comp like lillywhite again to just share ideas and get everyting going again! i love him!! well thanks for all the encouragement everyone! thanks for everyting! i hope you all have a great week!

LOVE ELDSTE FARNSWORTH

My Mother's Coming Back!??

HEY GUYS!!

 well you all are probably wondering why in the world its tittled what it is? yes? well i am getting there! in mission language you have your father right? he trains you and then you got a mother who is like a second trainer? well lets just say elder lillywhite is still a missionary since he is only one transfer ahead and he is coming back to serve with me!! I am super excited but i also get to kill my mother....i get to watch him go home...! so i get to kill off my own mother...im such a great daughter right? well thats really the biggest news! it will be great since we didnt really know how to work when we were together after all we were basically greenies together so now we can wreck house and tear it up all over this place! we are both super excited to work with each other again and share our ideas and do our very best here in TRONDHEIM!! we need some new ideas up in here since nothing we have been trying is working and it has been pretty hard latley! we havent had to much success when it comes to making people investigators although we have met tons of people we are just struggling getting return appointments! Another piece of awesome news is my companion is going to my home grounds in MO I RANA! so i have been giving him the low downs on the whole area! im super excited for him and i bet he will just do gret there! it helps alot to be in such a small place sometimes! Well i will say i am looking so much forward to this new transfer with elder lillywhite and its going to be lots of fun!:) i dont really know what else to say anymore haha! The mission is just flying by faster and faster and its hard to keep up sometimes! you have to make sure you are enjoying the moments as they fly past haha! ITS BEEN A GREAT MISSION SO FAR!! and many things are still in store!:) i love you guys and enjoy your week until next week!
