Good Times in Trondhiem

HEIA!!!

 Well this week has been good! we have met alot of cool people on the street and now is the time to talk to all the drunk teenagers in NORWAY!! its the time of RUSS!! there is so many rediculous tings that happen during this time! last year i dint really witness anyting but i have already had 10x more fun messing with the drunkards at 3 in the afternoon! although during this time peole are so much more friendly and willing to talk and i think it will help if they will remember atleast that we were fun to talk to right? haha well we also have witnesses RUSSEDÅP which is where people baptized each other(yes it shows how much they love religion in this country right) which is pretty funny and then watch them as they run around doing their Russeknuter which is the challanges which are usually very sexual or practical jokes in anycase so we get a kick out of it!:)

  we have had some super spiritual lessons too! on sunday we had the investigator class and it was one of the best classes that i have attended with one of our new investigators and it really helped him understand the role of the holy ghost! it really made him think! you could see it on his face haha and i love that!:) and just the people we have visited has just made this week go by fast and all the good things that members do for us! it just makes me so greatful for everything that i have seen and done here in norway! we have been helping out some of the girls that were baptized for 2 years ago and helped them understand more about the gospel! its so cool seein people that were complete atheist and seeing that they now have seen the love of god and cant deny it and bear testimony! they just havent been taught for like 2 years even though they come to church and we ended up ansnwering TONS of questions about random things! it really helped them and it just made me even more greatful to see that the lord has plans for others and is helping so many of his people here!! i love you guys and i hope you have a great week!!

A New Week!

HEY EVERYONE!!

 ITS been a good week here in Trondheim! its been warm weather and people seem to be a little more willing to stop since its somewhat nicer weather! we have quite a few potentials but most of them have fallen threw unfortunatly but we are still lookin!!:) its been interesting to serve around people that are leaving because they talk about marriage way to much just so you know!! well we had the stake presidency here and we went to the fireside and it was super inspiring the messages that were shared and it made me reflect a little bit of my own faith and why i love living it! also to always strengthen my own testimony for it is something that can leave if we are not Converted unto the lord! its actually been a long time since i have given you all an assignment and it will be to read that talk from last conference by elder david A. Bednar and that was one of the themes i thought anyway for last conference and this one as well! We are focusing alot on being obedient and encouraging each other this week! its elder lillywhites last full week in the land and he is freaking out! its way funny to tease him but the jokes come right back at me....since we have 4 generations of missionaries living in one apartment! meaning 4 groups of missionaries in a row! thanks so much for all the support and i dont have to much time today because we all want to go and do things! haha but i love you all so much and i miss and love you all so much! i hope you all have a super week!!!:)

 LOVE ELDSTE FARNSWORTH

Each Week goes by faster and faster

HEY EVERYONE!!

 well this week as the rest has gone by SUPER fast! i forget what we do sometimes and i have been forgetting what day it is! Not to much has happened but we have found and talked to some really cool people but they always seem to have some kind of sickness or mental problems....haha we have found many of those people! i attended 3 hours of church yesterday along with 3 hours of singing at a church called ZION..... its funny because i had been invited in fredrikstad but we were way to busy every week and couldnt go and now i know that it was such a waste of time haha! it was just a testimony buidler to me to see how great our church is but yet what little people understand and yet they are held back (in this case) because they are blinded or just could careless to search! so all in all it was a good experiance and some pretty alright accordian music i would have to say but we dropped that guy afterwards. i really just want to tell you all that I have loved being a missionary and it has been SOO fun and yet super challenging at times or everyday but yoou recieve so much energy and strength from the spirit to help you keep going in the hardest of times! i know that this Gosple is true! it is so incredible and strengthens me so much! the weather has been so nice this past week! sun and this morning it was 10c and that was a nice change. we even went running this morning and it felt super good! i dont have a lot of time today since we are finally doing something as a district! i love you guys super much and i hope you all have a super week!!

Proud to be a Missionary

HEY GUYS!!!!!
  What a week! being in a 3som is just loads of fun! we are always having a good time even though it makes teaching and contacting harder since one person is out or the 3rd wheel but we have made it work! I hope you all got to see conference because i didnt miss it this year so i was super happy to be in a ward where it was there and translation was available! in this emial i would really just like to give my appreciation and greatest love for the chance i have had to serve a mission and to be able to learn and to really come to know and love our saviour! as i have had studies i have focused in on reading a conference talk and just seeing how they all witness of christ and his life and ressurection!! What a great thing to say is my calling is a special witness of christ and i witness for people everyday! i talked to an evolutionist this week who was actually the most in depth person i have talked to and yet no matter what i said you could see the nervousness in his eyes as we could calmly just answer what we know! he wouldnt let us leave so we talked to him for awhile and i simply bore a simple testimony and walked away! there is not a lot of people that stop but i love having that opportunity to share the gosple and i am not the best missionary but i do my best!:) i know that the gosple is true and that it has been restored! i joy in the fact of living together forever as families is something i love and look forward to! i know that christ died for me and that he is my saviour and that i have the incredible gift of repentence(because i am a sinner and need it:)) and that i have so many opportunities to serve! i love you all and i hope you have a great week!

Easter Sunday

GOD PÅSKE!!

 This week has been a good week and yet to follow the rutine it has gone by SUPER fast and faster than i can even comprehend sometimes! Of course one of the hardest times as a missionary atleast in norway is the easter holiday! everyone leaves and goes to other places but the place they live! in all honesty we did pretty good with trying to keep ourselfs busy but in all honesty it went so fast i dont even remember what happened the whole time! We even managed to have an investigator in church and same with the other elders and sisters! we had 5 investigators all together which for a week like this one was pretty impressive so i was happy with the out turn! we have had good days even though its now april and we have had snow today and is int he forcast for this whole week but we look forward to the blessing that will be coming this week! i hope you all have a good week! i dont have alot of time this week since we helped people move this morning for 4 hours but it was so good and now we all just are drained of energy! Thanks for all the encouragement and i am so thankful for you all! i hope you all have a great week! i love you all
