Hey everyone!!!!
SO guess what? Im moving out of porsgrunn.... Im going to moss tomorrow. My new companion is elder g. He was in the mtc with me. I'll be senior comp THat'll be cool.  I'm pretty excited for something new.  But it is sad to leave from here.  Yesterday was pretty sad.  BUt I'm still pretty excited. We had a short transfer because there are three missionaries going home today.  THis next transfer will be 8 weeks though to make up for it.  

That'll be pretty cool. Porsgrunn has been a good place though.
SOunds like you guys had a good week though. Lots of cool stuff. :) There's some cool stuff going on there it sounds like. THat's good the house was closed on. Hopefully you guys can get it worked out with the filer house.  Me and elder b a while ago were thinking alot about moses too.  The story around that all is pretty crazy.  Moses did a lot of pretty amazing things.  Its crazy how they didn't trust him or God even after all the miracles they had already seen. I thought it was interesting.  I didn't even know it was memorial day... Hmmm haha its almost kristi himmelfarts dag.... Jacob dont laugh. It means Christs ascension day. haha So they will probably have everything closed on thursday. But it will be good.  I hope you guys have fun hiking though.- ANd enjoy those river sandwiches.  I might just eat that later.. haha I don't know of any suggestions... I dont remember that too much anymore.. I would suggest fløyen or ulriken.. or something.. But thats a long ways away.  haha
Sounds like you had a really good family home evening though.  I think its really cool to hear all the stories. THat's cool that we are related to a norwegian. I have heard the name knudesen a lot.  I think there was some elder a while ago named knudesen.  
LAst week was really good.  We have been Just trying to find people on the way all the time. SO we try and just make a destination to go to and then just talk to everybody on the way. Its crazy how often we are blessed so much more that way. Kontakting and banking are pretty ineffective for the most part. SO we have been trying to think of other ways to do things. SO to fill our time we decided we needed to visit at least one member every day. THat gave us a lot of destinations. ANd we find people so much easier that way. The people just seem more prepared when you are on your way to a destination.  Pretty cool. One day we had two people stop us and tell us they wanted to talk. So that was pretty cool. Now we just have to get them to meet with us more than once so they can progress.  Things are going really well. I love it.  BUt I will be moving to moss... SO I will just keep working hard there :)  I am pretty excited to go there though. I heard its the most members in a concentrated area in all of europe so thats pretty cool.  THe missionaries were fed a lot. But I heard that the mission actually stopped most of the dinners because it made it so there was no proselyting time.  SO I think I will be well taken care of. But every time I told the members here that I was going to moss they kind of made a funny face and said uff da... haha. We'll see.  I am excited. Lots of good stuff though,.

Thanks so much for your prayers and your support.!!! I love you guys!!!!
