This was a week filled with the ups and downs and
roller coaster rides of life.
Things have unfortunately seemed to slow
down a bit because of summer. Members all go on vacation, investigators
decide to take a break or they go on vacation, all Norwegians flee to

The work always goes on. God doesn't take summer vacations from helping
us, so we can't take summer vacations when it comes to helping him and
living worthily of his spirit!

I love this country, I love these people, and I love the gospel which has always given me so much hope and happiness in my life. I also love my family. I'm SO pumped to see everyone again and meet all my new family members as well!
Gud vær med deg til vi sees igjen!
