Training
Yes your truly will be training someone after having just finished being trained. The work will continue! Much faith and trust will be put in the Lord! Yes funny fails and stories are sure to follow!
FOOD (We got fed a lot!!)
We had another amazing dinner with Arild and he helped us with some språk too! Always awesome when your members are willing to help you! Also getting free food is always a big plus for missionaries!
We also were invited to Lil's Mothers house and she fed us this amazing casserole! It was like funeral potatoes but on instead of potatoes, fish! So good!
Lil invited us over to watch Elder Hales funeral and also for some dinner! She made us Hot Chocolate with whale salami, brown cheese, and bread. For those of you who have not tried whale salami, sadly that is true for most because whale is illegal in the USA, you are missing out! It was so good! Also really enjoyed Elder Hale's funeral very touching to hear how loyal of a friend he was! I could tell he truly did his best to be a friend to all and most importantly the Savior!
Arnt and Bianca Pedersen wanted to feed us reindeer! It was great! We had what is called Fin Biff! I loved it like it was absolutely phenomenal! Next time I watch Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer I think I just might imagine how good he would tast in Fin Biff!

Bowling
Since Elder Rumsey and Sister Neilsen are leaving two of the investigators they teach wanted to go bowling! If any of you were doubting that the shankmaster has lost his touch do not fear, I won both games scoring 123 and 165! To quote the master teacher himself "Oh ye of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?" Seriously though we had a great time and Henrik and Tiril are both amazing and have such strong testimonies!
Missionary Work-For those of you who thought I was just on vacation up here ;)
1. We got a referral! His name is Alexander and he wants a Book of Mormon! He is a busy man so we are trying to find time to schedule an appointment!
2. Contacting the night away! Working hard and hitting the pavement is what we do up here in Tromsø!
3. The work is progressing and Rouven is doing well as always! I believe he is close to baptism so prayers for him would be wonderful!

So I just gotta say if you have not listened to General Conference you have too!!!!!!!!!! It was incredible! All the talk were amazing! I have decided that I will give out a weekly talk for people to watch! This weeks talk is only 10 minutes so please EVERYBODY(Lds, Non Lds, children, dogs, cats, lamps, etc) listen to it!
Thanks so much and if anybody ever has questions just go to mormon.org, ask the missionaries, or find your nearest LDS friend and ask your question!
