I was talking to my good friend Elder Cribbs, and we realized that neither of us can spell, so if anybody could send us some spelling worksheets that would be helpful! Norwegian has taken its toll on my English...

Questions
Will I get an american thanksgiving?
Yes, we are having an activity with the YSA!
What is one new thing I learned this week?
The importance of humility. I learned a lot about humility. I am reading the BOok of Mormon with the topic of humility and one thing that really stuck out to me is how often the Lord promises blessings, IF we are willing to humble ourselves and do what He has asked us to do!
What has been the best part of my mission so far?
With out a doubt, getting to know the members in Drammen. They have taught me so much, and I have never felt so close to anybody before! They were a family away from my family! Incredible times and times I will never forget!
Zone Conference!
We had zone conference this week and all the missionaries from the North Zone came to Trondheim. On Tuesday, President Tew came and we went to the exhibit underneath the bank, sorry I forgot to take some pictures, but I will send one when I get one! It was really fun! On Wednesday we actually had zone conference. All our planning finally paid off. We had members come and teach, practical, and share their testimonies with the missionaries! It was a huge success and all the missionaries loved it!

Bodø Splits
We went to Bodø this week and that was a fun story. No one in the apartment woke up to the 3 alarms we have set, so at 7:30 Elder Gonzalez naturally woke up and told us... Problem is that we needed to catch a train to the airport at 7:38. We missed that one and then took the bus and got their 5 minutes to late to check into our flight. The thing is, we needed to get to Bodø. I went and stood in the Service center line for about 40 minutes, by that time our flight had left. I talked with the lady and she said that we had missed our flight and were out of luck. I just said, "But we need to get to Bodø." After us saying the same things back and forth, she had an important phone call, and with the line of 8 people behind me, she gave us tickets for a flight at 11:05. We got to Bodø and had an awesome splits! I was with Elder Pritchett, and also got to see Elder Sargent! It was awesome to see how they both work so hard! They organized a branch activity with waffles and board games! Super fun and loved being with them!
Overall this week was really fun! Lots of fun times with the missionaries and learning with each other! I am so grateful to be on a mission. I do not know how it has gone by so fast, but I am grateful for every learning opportunity the Lord has given me. I have grown, and have loved to see the growth and change in other!
