Q and A
How are our investigators doing?
Great! The only one we have is Eduardo and he has been coming to church every single week since he arrived in Norway! The members have been great in taking him in!! He has a baptismal date for May 5 (Cinco de Mayo)!!! He knows the church is true and that the book is blue!! Exciting things!!!!
What is the hardest part of my mission right now?
People that act super interested on the street and we get their name, number, and an appointment and then they just disappear of the face of the planet! So that is hard, but the works keeps on going forward!!
This week was awesome because I got to go on splits with Elder Rumsey (now, how many of you people know who this Elder is???) If you said that he was my trainer than you are correct! We had a blast!!!! So much fun and it  felt like I was back in Tromsø again!!! We had a lot of fun, and got some success along with that!
Homey!!

This kid, whose nickname will be Homey, is a super star!! Have not got a formal lesson with him, but we are going to get one soon! On the street we stopped him and just started talking and he has a strong faith in Christ! Super incredible 20 year old guy!!!! He was talking and I just thought you know this guy would love Alma 7:11-13 and when i gave it to him to read he said, and I quote, "This is really deap! I love that!" Yeah so basically he is getting baptized! Okay maybe I am a little too excited, but he seems like a really awesome guy that I can not wait to teach!
Eline!!
Eline is a girl that went on a student exchange to Utah and we found her in the Area book! When we called her she seemed super positive and really willing to meet! She was just like "Oh of course we can meet!!" Super happy upbeat and positive!
Raft used to sail from South America to Polynesian Islands

Pday!

What we did today was go to the Kon Tiki musuem! Basicaly this guy proved that ancient americans could have sailed from south america to the french Polynesian islands! So he built a raft and did it! He also built a raft and sailed from The Middle East to the United States! Although he did not do it for the purpose of proving the legitimacy of Lehi and his family's story of traveling from Jerusalem to The Americas, it did just that!! More proof that it did happen!!!
